Nope. It's x86 only. Sun strategy is Solaris on Sparc workstations and
servers, Solaris on high-end Intel servers, Linux on edge / low-end Intel
(actually, they use AMD for the boxes they build, but anyway) servers,
Solaris on technical desktops, and now Linux/x86 on office desktops.
It's taken them three years of waffling back and forth about what to do
about Linux even to come to a strategy that coherent, if you want to call it
that ;-)
later,
