Quick answer is yes, but depending on what the whdload package contains it might not be straight-forward to get working.
In general whdload is an amiga program that needs to be installed on a hard drive (image) with a working OS installation. You then use the original floppy disk(s)/file(s) to get the correct data for it, and finally you'll be able to run the game/demo. All steps should be supported by vAmiga, but you need to emulate a hard drive, and go through the steps. Be sure to check out this discussion: #768
So the steps are:
- Prepare a hard drive and get a working OS installation
- Download and install WHDload
- Do a whdload installation for the game/demo (instructions/installers can be found at http://www.whdload.de/). This usually involves inserting the game/demo disks in a specific order.
- Make sure you save export the HDF at this point
It's possible that you may find HDF-files (of questionable legality) on the internet where all these steps have already been performed. With the correct settings these should work out of the box.
There are also many "whdload packs" where step 3 has been performed by someone else (legally this is fine for demos) and you get a lha-archive that can just be extracted and used somewhere on your (emulated) harddrive assuming you've completed steps 1 and 2 on your own.

Can this be closed?

From my perspective this can be closed. Feels a bit overcomplicated to setup when compared to the easiness of FS-UAE where one just adds the whdload as a hard-drive so I went with using that instead.
