Note that these groups are for Office for Windows. For Mac support please
repost in the Mac group located at microsoft.public.office.mac. However,
assuming a) a retail licence and b) that the licence for the Mac version is
identical to the one for Windows, then yes you can - you don't need an
additional key just activate as you did on the G4 (I assume the Mac version
requires activation?)

As you can see, I don't know anything about Macs so, for the best assistance
you should really repost in the Mac group.
