Yes.

Indigo2 R4400 is hardware IP22 and 'inst' (or software manager) will automatically install the correct (32 bit) kernel.
Indigo2 R8000 is hardware IP26, and the R10K Indigo2 is hardware IP28, and for these the 64bit kernel is installed.

All O2's are hardware IP32, and they all run a 32bit kernel, even if an R12K CPU is installed.
