If you can interact with all those back end Microsoft servers through standard protocols then you can probably build a workstation image. From what I've heard, sharepoint requires Windows on the front end to really make use of it's functions as does Exchange server.
This is the lock-in legacy most companies now have to live with; welcome to the upgrade treadmill, start saving up for the next version Microsoft will tel you to buy.
