A lot depends on the configuration of the exhaust pipe (side or rear facing exhaust area or even just a vertical stack) and the engine. If a lot of cases, the pressure at the exhaust pipe is slightly less that the pressure at the air intake of the engine. That differential in pressure can drive the flow.
If at least one of the cylinders has an open intake and exhaust valve then flow will go through the air intake through the compressor, into the cylinder with open intake, out the exhaust spin the turbine and exit the exhaust pipe. Since most of these turbo's don't have their own oil supply and pump, they dry windmill and the bearings can be damageddue to running without oil.
The big IF is: does the engine have a position where an intake and exhast valve are open on the same cylinder? If it doesn't then I'd say no problemo!
