Yes. You can even use the ready-compiled RPMs available from Fedora
EPEL:

Ugh. Why do you want to compile these yourself? Use the distribution
packages, that way you always can tell what is installed on your system
and upgrading is easy.

1. Enable the Fedora EPEL repository
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/EPEL/FAQ#howtouse

2. Currently Gromacs is only available in EPEL Testing, but will be
pushed to EPEL Stable. Install Gromacs with

# yum --enablerepo=epel-testing -y install gromacs gromacs-mpi

This way you get single and double precision binaries with and without
MPI support, and all the needed dependencies.

3. If you don't want Gromacs to be automatically updated with yum, put
the line

exclude = gromacs*

in /etc/yum.conf. When you want to update Gromacs to the newest version
available, remove the line and run

# yum -y update
