As long as dropbox allows you to store a file (the file that is encrypted by TrueCrypt) there is no additional work needed. Obviously though you will need to install TrueCrypt, under windows there is an option to create a "traveler disk" (which can be used from the target (flash) drive without installing additional software IIRC), but I do not know if it is available for Linux or OSX.
