If I clone in USB2, can I boot in Firewire?

Hi, I have a G4 PPC and I just installed a new USB 2 card. Since I have firewire, I don't know why I would ever clone by connecting the backup drive via USB2 instead of firewire*, but say I did. Would I still be able to boot from the backup as long as the backup is connected by Firewire?

*well - there is one reason - I also just got one of those universal USB2 connectors that'll connect your bare drive to a USB2 port. It would save me the trouble of putting backup drives in an enclosure.
