No, that works with any Xcode version that has ever been released (although in the past the binaries were somewhere below the /Developer folder rather than inside the Xcode application bundle). However, it works in the same way that installing the "hackintosh" Mac OS X distribution on a generic PC works: in a completely unsupported and probably incomplete way, that may break at any time (e.g. in this case when the compiler/linker needs a file or utility that you forgot to symlink).
