Yes, I think so, but don't expect too much from the adapter...
I got one and it mounts the lenses, but only the Pancolar has given me focus to infinity.
Besides this, the adapter is made of aluminium, so it's not what I would call robust...
This is mine:

You know, it would probably just as easy to make an Exakta->EOS adapter as an Exakta->Pentax K adapter, for a lot less than $60.
All you really need are -
- an M42-EOS adapter (real cheap)
- an Exakta rear cap with bayonet, alunimum would be best but plastic will do. (I've seen these for $5-6)
- drill/Dremel, screws, tap, glue, tape, etc.
