Maybe!!
Before installing FC11-i586, I was running FC7 on AMD64
and I was running both 32 bit and 64 bit apps.
The 32 bit apps linked with libs in /lib and /usr/lib...etc
The 64 bit apps linked with libs in /lib64 and /usr/lib64.

But I am not sure about the more recent fedora 64 bit
releases or other distros'  64bit releases.
