Nope, at least not in binary form.  You'll have to get a working Plan 9 on x86 
first, then compile it yourself.  Once your x86 Plan 9 is running, getting it 
to build the Alpha version is pretty simple.

Getting it to boot -your- AlphaStation might be a bit more difficult... :)

Subject: [9fans] Installing Plan9 on a DEC Alpha Workstation
 
Hi,

I'm new to plan 9 but am interested in getting it running on an Alpha
600a workstation that currently runs Redhat 6. I was wondering where I
should look to get started, and if this will be feasible. I've checked
out the website and docs but still have a few questions:

* It seems that the live cd has only x86 binaries. Is there a version
for the Alpha architecture?
* Are there any known hardware issues with the Alpha port?

Thanks!
