Can I create a Dashlet from a custom Module?

I had a developer create me a custom module that populates an account automatically based on preset zip codes. (All accounts have assigned zip code-based territories. When we create a new lead, we assign them to an account. Basically, it's a quick lookup tool).

Is there a way I can take this module and add it to my dashboard? It would be great to be able to do a quick lookup from anywhere on Sugar.

Not sure if it's needed but here are screenshots of what it looks like.

We have had no problems adding dashlets for custom modules created using Module Builder, Studio and Module Loader. It probably depends on how the custom module was created that determines whether this is possible or not.

It shouldn't be any problem creating a dashlet to display data in the custom module. I think you could even leverage the list view dashlet that is by default shipped with SugarCRM. The real question is ofcourse what would the new dashlet need to do?

I need it to display the same data. The images I attached are within the Leads business card. After I enter a zip code, it finds that account and displays the name below (Test Dealer).
