Until the Java3D plug-in is provided
automatically by the major browsers, no.

Alas, the core libraries are native code.

Probably not. Those jar files are already huge
in their own right. And again, they're native code.
The users would have to be told to download the
appropriate runtime plugin (Sun's JREs for Windows and
Solaris, the Blackdown JRE for Linux...I'm not sure
for Macs) before they can see your much smaller
applet.
