The ST can not emulate an Amiga, simply because it does not have the
graphics/sound harware to do everything an Amiga can. However, the Amiga
could in theory emulate an ST (It would obviously be _much_ slower than
an ST.
BTW, a real ST emulator is indeed quit feasible. After all they
both use the MC68000, don't they. The hard part would be to get AmigaDOS
to read TOS disks.
