Could you run a server on this? Something like NodeJS with low casual traffic? Would that work on Android at all?

Yes you could, I've been experimenting with running a server on arm for a couple of months and its surprisingly capable.

Node works well on arm because of all the effort google make for v8 to run well in Android
