I don't think anybody can honestly answer your question until Leopard is out. However, Apple says this about Bootcamp (in the description of the 300+ new features):

"Already running Boot Camp? Even easier.
If you’re already working with Boot Camp Beta, you’re practically finished before you start. All you need is some new drivers. To install them, simply start up your Mac in Windows and update the drivers from the Leopard DVD."

It seems to me that yes, it should work with some additions.
