It is. But getting there is quite an odessey at the moment:-
1. To even get it to load, you need to enable Multithreaded I/O.
2. But that's not enough. You'll need to have a "special" build of ppsspp though, that you've got to compile yourself, with the following change to line 114 of the sceIo.cpp file located in the ppsspp\Core\HLE\Libraries\ folder (where you downloaded the ppsspp source files):-
from
Code:
const int IO_THREAD_MIN_DATA_SIZE = 256;
to
Code:
const int IO_THREAD_MIN_DATA_SIZE = 0;
3. Once you have that build compiled, run it (ensuring that Multithreaded I/O is enabled), and the game will load just fine, FMVs and all. But once you get ingame (start a vacation), you'll quickly notice the following issues:-
a. The music is horribly stuttery and glitchy. Now granted you can mute it and play your own soundtrack in the background, but it's rather grating on the ears.
b. This may be the biggest dealbreaker for the game. The character models have a "wireframe" like effect on them, which doesn't go away no matter what setting you change. They're still pretty gorgeous (for a PSP game).
c. The internal FPS of the game (remember, don't confuse this with speed), drops at times from it's native 30 to 20, especially when you play the beach volleyball game. Fortunately, this issue can be resolved by using the Change CPU Clock function and setting it to 666 MHz.
d. This one is also another major one. You cannot access the Photo Mode (Precious Memories) at the main menu to look at older photoshots. The game will hang and do nothing, until you reset it or stop it. This is because PPSSPP doesn't have the functionality that the game requires for that option right now. It will probably be implemented later.
Speaking from personal experience, I managed to clear 2 girls' vacations, (Lei Fang and Lisa) without any issues, bearing the above in mind. The ending video played properly. The Private Paradise option also works, so older Venus videos can be seen. Totally worth it viewing DOA in 1080p. It's a pity Tecmo never considered the PC a viable platform for its DOA series, especially with DOA5.

EDIT:- Here's an
experimental build I concocted with the change above, this should be good for DOA: Paradise (just unzip it into a working PPSSPP folder, I've only got 64bit builds.)
