I think it should work (if you put the card in monitor mode), but I haven't tested it yet.

Yes, I am quite sure as some testing showed the same during development of my monitor mode patch. The firmware is a bit crappy at all. It wasn't too easy to get the monitor mode working like it is now. Nevertheless there may be some tricks to also overcome the firmware issues for packet injection, but I can't tell for sure.
