Yes. See [anonymous.tex.site-info]tex-for-ibmpc.txt on
ymir.claremont.edu for details. Make sure you have a hard disk,
at least a 286 (TeX can be run on an 8088, but I don't know why
you'd want to) and at least 640K of memory, but more is better
with the most popular versions.

There are all sorts of Emacses. I use MicroEmacs which has a nice
43-line mode for my ega-display. (I like to see as much real
estate on the screen as possible).
