If mean use it to install the FCMB exploit, it's not possible. You could probably read and write to a ps1 memory card with some drivers, but I'm almost certain it would be impossible to do with a ps2 memory card, since magicGate probably presents a problem there.

On googling, this FAQ confirms the second part :\

It is used for transferring saves from PS1/PS2 memory cards to a PS3. That is all. There is no exploit for PS3 yet.

FYI the FMCB exploit for PS2 exploits a flaw in the DVD player software on PS2s. Hence the later versions of the slim PS2 not being compatible with the softmod since the software has been updated.
