Of course. I wrote a little script for it that shortens the process a bit. It is important to know that I am not working as a root user within armbian.
The necessary steps:
copy openvfd-fd6551.dts to /home/<username>
copy install_kernel_debs.sh to /home/<username>
copy OpenVFDService file to /usr/sbin, AND set permission to 777 !
copy openvfd.service file to /lib/systemd/system
sudo armbian-add-overlay openvfd-fd6551.dts
sudo /bin/bash install_kernel_debs.sh
After reboot:
cd linux_openvfd/driver
edit MAKE -> KERNELDIR = /lib/modules/$(shell uname -r)/build
sudo make -j4
sudo make modules_install
sudo modprobe openvfd
sudo usermod -a -G i2c <username>
Start the Service:
sudo systemctl enable openvfd
sudo systemctl start openvfd
