Theoretically,   it probably can.   In practice you also need a
SRP/iWARP target device.    The only SRP targets I'm aware only support
SRP/InfiniBand.
I doubt anybody has tried or tested this so there may well be some
SNAFU's along the way.

SRP/RoCEE is probably better if you must use Ethernet, since it will
avoid the TCP bottleneck on the storage devices. iSER might be a more
natural fit for iWARP.     But again, I doubt  anybody has built the
target devices or tested either of these.
