Yes, but you will have to install windows. Here is an article about that:

For Inventor 2014 Mac® users

On Boot Camp®:

You can install Autodesk Inventor Professional software on a Mac computer on a Windows partition. The system must use Apple Boot Camp to manage a dual OS configuration and meet the minimum system requirements.

Mac OS® X 10.6 (10.8 or higher recommended)
Boot Camp v2.0 or higher
Windows 7 64-bit
Intel® Core 2® Duo or greater processor with SSE2 technology, 3.0 GHz or greater
8 GB RAM or greater
64 GB free disk space on Windows OS partition (250 GB recommended)

Here is the link explaining it:

The real answer to this is: NO you can't run Inventor on OS X. You have to install Windows into your Mac to make it work. Every time you turn on your Mac you have to boot Windows instead of OS X where you can install and run Inventor. But NO, you can't use it in OS X and you actually have to buy original Windows operational system to make it all legal.
