Maybe. There are several miniature color LCD display HAT boards for the Raspberry PI (and perhaps this little board could be mounted to work in a similar context). Its worth looking into. Do some searching on google and see what you can find relative to LCD miniature displays and RPi HAT(s). Take a look at this HAT from adafruit:
