you can use that with Wine download and install wine on a linux box and try for foxpro, (any windows base application) if it supports you will be able to work. but may come the issue for the foxpro license

Hey

Running your Foxpro system on Linux isn't impossible, migrating your
FoxPro application to Linux is extremely simple if you use the right
tools. In this article I will show you exactly how easy it is, using
Recital Terminal Developer 9 (RTD) and other tools which are included
within this product

The first step is to copy your existing FoxPro system to the Linux
server using your preferred method be that removable media or over a
network using ftp or sftp.

The second step is to convert the FoxPro binary files into Recital
format and to alter the line feed character of ASCII files to the
correct format for the new host platform. This is done very simply
using the DBCONVERT utility included with RTD, which is run from the
Operating System prompt

for more info please refer this you will get all settings in this link
