Unable to install 32 bit application on 64 bit OS

Hi,

I am new to Linux OS. My question is that "is it possible to install 32 Bit application on 64 Bit OS?"
I have the following Redhat OS on VMware workstation.
OS - Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 6.2 | 2.6.32-220.el6.x86_64

While installing the application I am getting the following error.

Code:

Error -
: /lib/ld-linux.so.2: bad ELF interpreter: No such file or directory

Steps taken - Tried to install glibc-devel-2.1.3-15.i386.rpm
Error -

Code:

 
[root@localhost local]# ls -lart glibc-devel-2.1.3-15.i386.rpm
-rw-r--r--. 1 root root 8437424 Aug  9 22:01 glibc-devel-2.1.3-15.i386.rpm
[root@localhost local]# yum install glibc-devel-2.1.3-15.i386
