Corwin Davis was a pawpaw breeder and also had a pawpaw nursery. His Son-in-law now operates it and is located in Michigan near zone 4. Davis here is late season but there it apparently ripened well as it was selected and named after Corwin. Right off hand I don't remember the name of the nursery.
So yes, I believe you will be able to successfully grow pawpaws.
