It is not possible to install any 64 bit Windows program on 32 bit 
Windows.  The answer here is no.  However, you can try to build the 64 
bit version of Wine (http://wiki.winehq.org/WineOn64bit.  There are 
packages that you must install to get full Wine functionality and they 
are discussed on the approprite page.

Also, one further comment.  RedHat Linux 5.4 is nearing End of Life 
support.  Please consider upgrading to 5.5, 5.6 or 6.0

As James said, it is not possible to install any 64 bit program in 32 bit Wine;
you need 64 bit Wine. For Office 2010 you also need Wine 1.3.9 or later, as it
did not install at all in older versions.

Beyond that, Office 2010 is still very buggy in Wine, even in 32 bit.
There's a howto in the AppDB describing overrides needed to get basic
functionality that probably applies to the 64 bit version as well, but even with
the workarounds, there are still noticeable problems.  If you have Office 2007,
install that instead. (You will also need newer Wine for that, as there was a
regression in 1.3.7.)
