From what I understand, it's not possible to run 64-bit (x86-64) software on a 32-bit (x86) computer. However, it is possible the other way round, although you shouldn't notice a significant performance different between running the 32-bit and 64-bit versions on a 64-bit machine.
Does this answer your question?
