Yes and no...
IE4 can run applets that use RMI, but Microsoft chose not to include the
necessary base classes.  You can get a patch from the Microsoft site
containing the RMI classes or put the Sun JDK in your classpath ahead of
the Microsoft classes so that IE picks up actual Java base classes.

Of course, requiring all your IE users to patch their browser installation
may not be acceptable from a practical standpoint.
