Yes.  SeaBIOS or FILO would work fine.

1. svn co svn://coreboot.org/coreboot/trunk coreboot
2. make menuconfig
    select mainboard emulation qemu
    select payload (Add a payload)
3. copy FILO or SeaBIOS to coreboot/payload.elf
4. make

The build tutorials are hard to keep up to date.  If these steps work
for you, let us know.  If you have questions, I'll try to help.

Thanks,
