No, a belt positioning booster seat requires a lap-shoulder belt and cannot be used safely/properly with a lap-only belt. A 5-point harnessed carseat can be installed with a lap-only belt (provided that the child fits the 5-point harnessed carseat properly height-wise and weight-wise and that the harnessed carseat is compatible with the vehicle), but not a belt positioning booster seat.

What are the ages and weights of your child(ren) and what seats do they ride in?

Unfortunately, a lap only belt is not safe for anyone. The only safe way to use one is with a 5 point harness car seat as pp said.
