Assuming you run linux, it should be certainly possible, since gretl 1.3.2 is part of debian testing and 1.3.3 is in debian unstable (just about to migrate to testing). Since debian works on 11 different hardware architectures, I'd be very surprised if it didn't build on amd64, which is relatively standard. True, debian isn't officially ported to amd64 yet, but an experimental port (which *does* contain gretl) can be found at http://debian-amd64.alioth.debian.org/ and to my understanding will be part of the official debian offering soon. You might want to ask the debian package manager, Dirk Eddelbuettel (edd(a)debian.org). He is probably the most qualified person to give you a definitive answer.
