install athlon rpm on amd64

Hi,

Can I install an athlon(amd32) rpm on an amd64(x86_64)
machine.
When I tried installing, I am getting an ELF file
incompatibility. The .obj file in the athlon rpm is
ELF-32bit but the system is x86_64.
I guess it should still work? 
Maybe my rpm is bad.

If not, can I install an athlon(amd32) rpm on an i386
machine?

My apologies if this is not the right mailing list for
this type of question. 

with regards,
  Anil
