NetWare Server?  No, although IBM has demonstrated technology to do so
-- expect that to happen in the future.  (Incidently, this story was
all but ignored by the trade press, while I think this story was the
biggest out of Comdex, namely that NetWare Server was demonstrated
running under OS/2 2.0.)

NetWare Client (Requester)?  Yes.  The DOS version should work fine in
a specific DOS session -- see your online Command Reference under
VMDISK and Appendix E of your Installation Guide for more information.
Novell has released an OS/2 2.0 NetWare Requester, which I recommend
if you are a moderate to heavy network user.  You can get ahold of it
from an IBM SE, if you have a representative that visits you often, at
no charge, or from Novell directly by calling 800-UPDATE1 at a cost of
$30.
