Only if your system is a 486 or earlier.  As I said, it's in the 
hardware, you just need the software to be written to leverage it.

My original comment was in rsponse to Nicolas' statement that you'd have 
to have a 64-bit system in order to access memory over 4 GB; PAE lets you 
do that on 32-bit systems, so as long as the software is compiled for 
PAE, it can address memory > 4 GB.
