Under RTLinux, it may be possible, but would not be easy. I doubt if
you could use a standard Linux kernel (you may need to strip bits out
like they did for the Palm Pilot project).
The real problem here is the RAM size. The flash storage *could* just
about make it, but problably you want to run out of RAM disk, which once
everthing is uncompressed the RAM disk would itself need at least 2
Megs. This means you still need RAM for the kernel and your
application.
Take a look at the ELKS (embedded linux kernel subset) for some more
information.
