Yes, assuming that your iMac has a wireless card installed and it is operating correctly....and the iMac is located where it can receive a strong wireless signal from the AirPort router.

Might be a good idea to test that iMac out first.

Depending on the model of your iMac, you would either need to install an AirPort Extreme card inside it or use a wireless USB adapter. This would allow your iMac to join existing wireless networks.
