That should tell you all you need to know about the compatability. Short answer: Yes you can.

Update to point out main points:

• Firstly, inserting an original GameBoy game will display up to 4-10 colours. The colour scheme can be changed using special palettes.

• A small number is said to possibly not function properly as sometimes there may be scrambled images, sound problems or missing graphics.

To add to this, to change colour palettes, here a few key presses you can perform (you have to do this at the startup screen:

• Brown: Up directional key
• Blue: Left directional key
• Pastel mix: Down directional key
• Green: Right directional key
• Red: Up + A
• Dark Blue: Left + A
• Orange: Down + A
• Dark Green: Right + A
• Dark Brown: Up + B
• Gray: Left + B
• Yellow: Down + B
• Reverse: Right + B

Hope this was a bit more informative than my short answer :).
