Probably not. If you are using JDK 1.3 or your current working directory is the same you want to run the exec in, Ant will not use the antRun wrapper script. Instead, it will use Runtime.exec directly, which may or may not live with the same limitations as shell invocations - I guess they will fail at a certain length or number od arguments as well, but the limits may be different.
