Supposedly yes, Boone needs what, 5 points and the highest valued ones are 2. I think that's kind of lame IMO, I screwed the pooch for Raul, since I did the stuff for Ranger Andy like 15 levels before I got near him. I cheated and used the console to do it.
I just checked it out, looks like if you do Ring-A-Ding-Ding and make someone dead (no spoilers) he'll go right into it. Also if you do Wild Card: Change in Management and kill everyone he'll go into it.
