It's all technically possible, I found this:
"The Linux firmware that comes with the Q5/7 and V5/7 devices is an
Ubuntu 9.10 (Karmic Koala) build"
at http://www.smartqmid.com/wiki/index.php?title=Linux

And I found this:

You could try to find package manager and see if debian packages for
the ARM (?) architecture work.
Or use command line apt-get tools (or dpkg if you have .deb file for
kexi and its dependencies).

But as I see no kexi packages for ubuntu 9.10 on ARM
(http://packages.ubuntu.com/karmic/kexi), someone needs to build it.
It's good idea to contact the ubuntu developers reguralry and request
the packages. Please inform us about any success, so
http://userbase.kde.org/KOffice/Download can be updated!
