If you mean recording them from an existing song that's on CD, forget it.
MOD files originated on the Amiga long before being able to just take long
samples of music was feasible; instead it's a sort of bare-bones MIDI
format which relies completely on fixed samples. You'd have about as much
luck trying to convert a CD track to a .mid file.
There are a ton of mod players and probably some composers (known as
'trackers') availible for Linux. Do a search on freshmeat or linuxapps
for "s3m", "mod", "tracker", or "xm".
