Can I run 64-bit VM guests on a 32-bit host?

If I have a physical PC with 32 bit can I launch a VM that is 64 bit? What virtual machine software (Virtual PC or VirtualBox or other) would allow this?

I read out there that VMware may support this but I am looking for something Open source or free.

Host would preferably be a Windows host but could be Linux. Guest needs to be Windows.

Thanks
