Maybe...I'm not sure because I've directly updated my fedora core 5 to fedora 7
But it should be possible...
Are you upgrading your system or is it a fresh installation?

Note: I'm not responsable for any damage on your system, if you do this it's your own risk!
okay, that's easy...
do you have the option to try it on a virtual machine first?
first at all...you need to rename the name of the release, you will find the file in
/etc
named
fedora-release
with
you should get somthinge like this:
Fedora Core 6 (Zod)
replace this line with
Fedora Core 5 (Bordeaux)
Now you are able to start the scalix-installer...
After the installation you should rename fedora-release again.

Tried this, the exact line is:
Fedora Core release 5 (Bordeaux)
fresh installation on F7, it's not working, the installer crashes trying to setup Tomcat:

Going to try on CentOS 5 ... better for server anyway
