Actually I withdraw my above comment.

Sniper Roost
Description: 4¥. Streetwise. May be used by an unturned Runner with
Firearms in your Safehouse to assist a shadowrun. This Runner does not
turn and cannot be damaged. Each time Sniper Roost is used, roll D6.
On 5+, trash Sniper Roost and the Runner using it. Cannot be used
against Indoor Challenges.

Taking a look at the wording of the card, Marek would be able to use
his spell to assist the combat as you'd first asked. Seeing as how he
meets the requirement of also having a firearms skill.
