Yeah. I have a 2011 Macbook Pro with a dual core i7 running Arch and Plasma, and while it’s obviously nowhere near as quick as my M2 Macbook Air, it’s still a perfectly respectable machine. Last week I also put Arch on a ThinkPad T410 with a dual core i5. I wouldn’t want it as my main computer, but it chugs along ok.
