Can you buy it? Sure.
Can it be used with the 2009 electronics? I'm not qualified to answer--perhaps someone more involved with the camera can answer.
Can you use it on your 2010 robot? We don't know yet, and won't until Kickoff whether it will be legal, feasible, or wise to use for next season.
If you're cool with experimenting with the camera at the risk of being out $200 on something that turns out to be illegal or useless next year, that's your team's choice. Only a few CDers know how that will pan out--and if you ask them, they'll probably start talking about bananas or clownfish.
