Yes, as long as it has a Nikon mount.

Each camera manufacturer has a unique camera mount. The lens should work with most any DSLR of the brand it was made for.

It appears that lens has been offered in Nikon, Canon and Sony mount.

So long as the one you're considering is designed for Nikon, it should work fine.

There's a note on the Tamron website that the Nikon version of this lens does not have a built in autofocus motor. It will be manual focus only on Nikon cameras that don't have the in-camera focus drive motor. This IS NOT A CONCERN with a D90, which has that in-body focus drive motor and will be able to autofocus the Nikon-mount version of the lens. But some other Nikon models do not have that in-body focus motor (i.e., D40, D60, D3000-series, D5000-series).

If it has a Nikon mount it will. If not you may be able to buy an adapter. Not sure, I have never looked into adapters for this purpose.
