Of course it will run GNU/Linux desktop applications (if you compile them and their dependencies for the CPU architecture - possibly ARM), but honestly, how many of those are optimized for mobile UI.
Not only optimized to mobile UI, but also using Qt / Qt Quick. For example, Maemo 5 Gtk softwares are optimized for mobile use. But they don't work on MeeGo Harmattan, Sailfish OS and Ubuntu Phone OS.

But it is expected to have all CLI (Command-Line Interface) softwares to work on Ubuntu Phone OS.
