Could this system be used for solo gaming? Would the rules as written work unchanged? Thanks.

This is a bit of a tricky question. In terms of use as system, Alique is absolutely fine for solo play. It contains all the elements you need for character creation and task resolution, and as such can be used that way without a problem.
In terms of plot generation... well, you're still acting as your own GM. There's no method of creating a story other than the standard tools that a GM uses in the GM's section to create stories for any group of players. There's no table to roll on to suggest plot threads or mechanism that says when to add new complications.
As the designer, well, I use it for solo play a fair bit. Sometimes when I need more complications to occur, I will deliberately take a less optimal roll, a 3 or 4, to deliberately create more complications for my character. And of course the advice in the GM's section to spin new plots off of what it is my character wants, and how their background might complicate that want.
I hope that helps?
