Yes it is possible to dual boot Linux I believe (In fact I am typing this on a Chromebook Pixel running Ubuntu) but that is not the same as the Linux App support with Crostini which is utilizing a VM and Docker to run Linux apps, not necessarily natively, but in a way that appears native to ChromeOS. The end result being that you can run Ardour for instance on ChromeOS supposedly, but with no sound support it is rather pointless. I can't comment on the Pixelbook's USB.
