Nice to see someone else caring for RISC OS :-)
Yes, but what for?
Because portability of the VM is important, and RISC OS is the only supported platform that is not a Unix derivative. Even the Windows VM looks rather unixy from the VM point of view.
The only way to know if something is portable is to actually port it.
SqueakJS is another useful reference point in this regard.
