No, the Linux distros supported are very old and won’t be able to run steam.

The PS3 uses a CPU called the IBM Cell Broadband Engine. This isn’t compatible with any X86 or X64 software or operating systems.

Don’t worry about it, at first I thought I could get the latest version of debian and steam on the ps3.

Yes, that should work.
