No, it wouldn't. Even if it could handle the actual impact, the ramming vessels's power core - most likely anti-matter - going 'boom' would completely vaporize the ship. Just as much as it did the Odyssey.
Ahem, the Odyssey was still intact after the collision, but heavily damaged when the JemHadar fighter blew. It, Odyssey burst asunder when its, the Odyssey's engines exploded-not before.

The Lexington was hit and pushed-no hull damage seen.

I looked at Mike Wong's work on the SW films. I also looked at Mister Poe and a few others and I am convinced that the battlecrab is toast if it fights an ISD.

Just by the same token I suggest that the "alligator" and the "Omega" would be a fair comparison, as the Colonial battlestar's missiles are quite capable of severely damaging a 1600 meter EF capital ship if not destroy it outright. The basestars that tried to shoot down the Pegasus' missiles failed.
Those missile warheads were powerful enough to destroy base ships larger than the "Omega".

Cheers!
