I'm pretty hopeful of it. Trent Oster has mentioned it in the baldursgate forum several times. Both of the EE games work perfectly with wine, but a native version is always preferred.

I pre-bought both of the EE games - I wonder if I will have to purchase Linux versions, or if we will get them as part of the previous purchase?

The windows version is entirely DRM free. If you purchase it from BeamDog, you need to use the DeamDog client to download the game. The game itself is DRM free to run after that, but you still need the client for updates.
