Sure. There is nothing FreeRADIUS-specific in eapol_test.

Yes, I use eapol_test to test wpa_supplicant EAP peer implementation
against number of RADIUS authentication servers. The server side does
not need any additional configuration apart from allowing the host that
you use to run eapol_test on to act as a RADIUS client. In other words,
you will just need to configure that host as a NAS/client in the RADIUS
server configuration. At that point, you will also assign a shared
secret for the client (i.e., the one that you set with -s option for
eapol_test).
