Odds are with a bit of work you can find the start of the dara and so that you can mount it. Witb raid1 it should be doable. With raid5/6 you need to know details about the algorithm used by the card. I think there is a disk scanning tool that can be used to find the lvm and or fs header and from that you could use dmsetup to create a device srarting at the right spot for the header to work (without putting a partition on the device). I use software raid just so i do not need the same type of raid card to read it on a new or repaired system

Raid cards of different brands wont typically read each others configs. So any replacement card would need to be the same card, or maybe just manufacturer to read the current config and disks.
Yikes!
With that said, there are really not many makes of cards. Andtheir cards are usually based on the same model. Other cards are really not true hardware raid controllers. You can find out by getting the model number from lspci.
And there is always Drive Savers
