Certainly no issue from the IRLP side of things.  You need to make a 
change to the IRLP node's environment file.

ALLOW_EXPERIMENTAL=YES

if my rusty memory is working.  Can't easily double check at this time. :(

I think you also need to let Dave Cameron know the IP address or 
hostname of the experimental system (i.e. the AllStar node/conference).

Finally, on the AllStar side of things, you would need to use a 
version that has IRLP support (i.e. rather old now), or use 
thelinkbox to accept the incoming IRLP connections and pass audio to 
the AllStar node.
