Yes, I believe it is. I was rather disappointed when I tried installing and running NetBeans in Trisquel and Debian only to find it didn't work. I searched the web and eventually found a bug report (I can't find it now) which said NetBeans won't currently work on OpenJDK because of a bug in OpenJDK. Eclipse works though (if that is able to fulfil your IDE requirements). Andrew.
