Not specifically. Linux becomes 64-bit when compiled for 64-bit, run
on a 64-bit machine, and the machine has all the 64-bit versions of
libraries and everything else installed. Even then you can run 32-bit
applications if you have the 32-bit emulation libraries installed.
That's how I run ChucK on my Gentoo 64-bit machine as ChucK won't
compile correctly on 64-bit. (Or wouldn't the last time I tried.
Anyone working on that?)

All the distributions I know of support 64-bit versions.

HTH,
