Can VirtualBox be executed under Amazon EC2 instance?

We have a test system where a VirtualBox VM snapshot is started before each major test. The snapshot contains a state of the tested system specific to the test.

This is a memory-intensive testing.

There is an idea to move the daily test run into Amazon EC2 Large instance (7.5G of RAM).

My understanding though is that EC2 is a supervisor itself. Will it allow another VM software (VirtualBox) to get started under it?

Amazon does allow you to import VirtualBox and VMWare VMs at no additional charge beyond usage charges for Amazon EC2.
