I would think so, you'd have to convert the dvi file to postscript, and
then view the .ps file with ghostscript. 
I wouldn't like to do that every time I wanted to preview something on
my 386 (if only I had a 486/66 :-().

Er, yes, I keep forgetting wether the DOS program is also called dvi2ps 
(like on the unix-boxes), but there is a program that does the same as dvi2ps
I'm pretty sure it's in the FAQ [.. jumps to dos, looks at faq ..], yes
