No idea, you can either just try it, or ask at the gtk forum:

http://www.gtkforums.com/

The documentation doesn't say anything about this:

http://developer.gnome.org/gtk/2.24/GtkNotebook.html#gtk-notebook-append-page

I think that for this the Handle would need to point to the client
area and not to the notebook itself (not 100% sure, however). But it
will get very nasty to maintain a common code base with TPageControl
then, because not even the Handle will be the same.

There is always the possibility of starting a new WS implementation
only for TTabControl...
