Probably, but you'd need to check the documentation or contact the maker to get the full details.

The link you posted goes to a page saying it handles devices made by the CMU robotics group, and a university will probably be happy to share information.

Those controllers can be controlled using the Arduino Servo library. Note that the stall current limit for the controller is 3A, so make sure your motors are suitable for use with it.
