I'd say that this is generally possible, since the DNS protocol is still the same.
But I didn't check the DNS-resolver yet, neither I have experiences with SEC-DNS yet. But I'll try to post an update on that as soon I found some time.
IMHO, on the other hand: If there is a namecoin blockchain on your machine or in your network running DNS-SEC is not necessary since the requests go directly to the local blockchain.
Yes, I think the website needs some urgent update. They are calling for help I think since its an open source project. Namecoin itself is still actively being developed as you can see here: https://github.com/namecoin/namecoin-core

Seems like this is a bit of an abandoned project. I guess there are still people mining this blockchain since they are still traded.
