I'm sure it is, because the transfers between that board and a PC are done by USB. And the software controlling it is python based.

So maybe as previously said, a way could be have a man in the middle, injecting DMA transfer those 24+4 lines, while receiving command from a PC.

Would any of those RaspBerry, its clones or similars, or ATMega based MCUs, do the trick?
