There's no reason why it shouldn't work - the G3 batteries don't have any "smart" internal management like the 5x0s. Assuming their cells and workmanship is up to scratch.
Rechargeable lithium packs need smarts to prevent "rapid uncontrolled disassembly" :) . I haven't cracked open a G3's pack, but it would surprise me not to find additional smarts inside. But it is fair to say that the 5xx powerbook smart batteries were not very smart. They certainly were/are frustrating!
