Not quite. Motorola 68k is currently not officially supported by LLVM/Clang.

There is a port that is half-finished though [1] and there is also one guy from
Czech Republic who wrote a Bachelor thesis on an m68k backend for LLVM [2]. I
have not been able to contact him though as his university address bounces.
I would love to see the code that was written there.

I have also played around with Rust on m68k based on the LLVM code on [1], but
it doesn't really work yet. I think finishing LLVM for m68k would be another
idea for a Bountysource campaign.
