I strongly suspect that we do.

I still have my 9000/332 set up and bootable—I just have to plug some video cables in—so if you’d like me to apply patches  and build and boot NetBSD 9.x kernels to test with, I can do so easily.

I also have a 9000/340C with a full 16MB of RAM and 1024x768 8-bit graphics now too. Just for reference, here’s my full SPU inventory, the only issues are as noted.

9816A (aka 9000/216)

9826A (aka 9000/226) — RAM error on boot

9836A (aka 9000/236) — RAM error on boot

9920 (aka 9000/220) — need to validate that it boots, I only just got both a display and async cable

Integral PC (aka 9000/207)

9000/310

9000/332

9000/340

9000/380

9000/425e — doesn’t boot, PSU probably needs a recap

9000/425t

9000/433s

One downside is that I don’t actually have any old Intel-based PCs that I can run HPDrive or something like that on, so I’m stuck with either network or SCSI storage (or getting an HP 9153A working with an MFMulator).
