In some respects, of course, it can't. In other respects, it can't
until VR technology gets a lot better.
However, they serve useful purposes nevertheless. In particular, they
can give more of a taste of the experience than most people are likely
to get any other way. And to someone who's got the interest potential
but nothing to spark it, it can be that spark.
And, for a hands-on museum, a replica panel backed by an emulator will
be close enough for a lot of people, better in that it's a lot easier
to fix and/or replace if it gets heavy and/or careless use (I'm
thinking schoolkids).
