IF it's the model with the GTX 960, possibly, at high or medium settings. If it's one of the lower GPU models, it's very unlikely. People with GTX 970/980 or R9 290/290x rigs are having issues at high and ultra settings. As long as you realize how demanding GTA V is, and that lower tiered cards are going to require reduced settings, then you'll understand what to expect.

Any of those sub models will "play" the game, but expect quality issues with lower tiered models.

I wouldn't recommend buying a Alienware.

I would take the money and build yourself your own Rig.
There are plenty of videos online how to. If you need someone to watch: PaulsHardware, Newegg on YT. etc

But i wouldn't recommend at all buying a prebuilt custom rig.

The Alienware X51 is a series of PC's, reference here http://www.dell.com/us/p/alienware-x51-r2/pd.aspx and while the base model at $699 is not capable of what you want, the next model up (for $949) comes up just short of the recommended requirements for GTA V but would run it (likely, mods would present a problem). Your best bet would be either of the two more expensive systems - performance comes with a price
