Based off the list of games that already uses older unreal engines. I'm gonna guess a Yes. Many people like the simulator aspect of Arma though.

You need a game engine that's really good about streaming in resources for a huge terrain. FPS game engines are not made for 15km x 15km areas at all. I've heard that Unreal4 will handle large terrains a lot better than 3, but we'll see when it's actually released.

It'd be interesting to see how the engine might handle things like hunger/thirst and broken bones/blood as well.

You'd have to code all of that in yourself.
