In linux no, but for MS there is software that will convert .mpp files. It's called Smartworks Project Reader.
You download the converter and convert to a .ppr file. Then you download the PPR Reader to read it. Not perfect, but does work.
Main website is http://www.smartworks.us/ |

Only used it a couple of times. It was on a MS Project 2003, and worked fine. Maybe contact Smartworks, they may know.
