Probably not. WCG is only available for Android based ARM devices. Unless that describes the device, it won't run.

Not definitive, but this link seems to say no:

You have Amazon FireTV sticks which can install BOINC from AppStore or install APK as alternative. Better than Android phones since you won't have issue with battery bloat.
