Is it possible to use an Android (ARM) .so library on Linux-ARM?

I need to use a third-party's library in a raspberry pi (Linux ARM) project in order to communicate with their servers.



The only available libraries they provide are win32/64, linux_x86(32/64), iOS and Android (no libraries for static linking are provided).



I first tried compiling for linux_x86 (successfully) and emulating that executable under an emulator on raspberry pi (qemu) but failed to do so.



And just now I was wondering if the library for android would just work out of the gate on raspberry pi.
I don't think the library uses any android-specific features since it has the same functionality on all platforms.



So, is it possible to compile my program on raspberry pi (running arm-linux, such as raspbian) with Android's library?
