YES. However, it is not a 32bit implementation, it is 16bit DOS based.
I mentioned where you can get a 32bit Perl before but no one listened.
Any simtelnet or Coast-to-coast mirror under
/msdos/perl/ download bperl4x.zip, this is a 32bit perl implementaiton
and it is distributed under the GNU public liscence.

This version of Perl 4.0 has been compiled using the WATCOM
