No, it's not working because programs are not packaged to be installed
for two different architectures at the same time.  Remember the issue
with updating perl on x86_64 a while back with FC3?  You can install
either the 32-bit (with some tricks) or 64-bit version, but not both
(using the official RPM packages, that is).
Note that I said "programs" above.  There are libraries and such that
can be installed for 32-bit and 64-bit at the same time and are meant
to have that capability.  The fact that there is no i386 mozilla
update is because there was no i386 package to begin with.  This is
not a bug.  The packages that are showing up with both 32-bit and
64-bit versions are libraries that some other (32-bit) programs use.
