Most likely not as a wireless-to-wireless extension. However, it should be possible to do a wireless-to-wired extension using the 802.11n AirPort Express Base Station's (AXn) ProxySTA feature.

It's certainly worth a try, although I'm only aware that establishing a WDS between the Linksys and the AirPorts has only been known to work with the WRT54G or GS model.
