I think not.  The Mac SE ROMs expect to have the Apple Desktop Bus interface
to the keyboard and mouse, which the Mac Plus does not provide.  Some of the
other hardware might be different on a Mac SE as well.

The Mac Plus does have the ability to support 256K of ROM; this is used, for
example, to place the Kanji software in ROM for Japanese Macs.
