^^ Of course. You can apply Basic theme from Desktop Properties. Or disable Aero from System Properties. You can also completely disable "DWM" service using "services.msc".

Do someone knows if this will work with the RTM of Service Pack 2?

full aero experience will not be enabled in vista home basic, but there are 3rd party softwares that can be used to enable some basic features like the glass effect (in maximized window) i recommend TuneUp Uilities 2009, its better than vistaglazz.
