Yes.  Out of the box with the 8139too driver.  This will be discovered
and configured automatically.

But it has led you astray this time.  New DFE-530TX+ cards have the
RealTek 8139 chip and use the 8139too driver by default.  The
via-rhine chips I have not seen in a D-Link DFE-530TX in many years
and I think are very rare now.
