Well ActiveRecord won't support it but that doesn't stop you from using the rest of rails with it (eg I'm working on an app that uses couchdb for storage).

Of course you can use them. If you are using CouchDB, then there exists ActiveCouch (http://github.com/arunthampi/activecouch/tree/master) which will give you ActiveRecord like interface. If you are planning to use some other DB, you can help community like ActiveCouch guys by extracting your code and releasing it.
