Not officially (yet). But, Fred Emmott is working on a port (see his "amd64"
post here earlier this week, and his activity on the #slackware irc channel
for example).

There used to be ports for the 64 bit Sparc and Alpha architectures during
the days of Slackware 8.0 and Slackware 8.1. I don't know if they ever
became stable. Today there is some work on a AMD64 port. There is also an
officiall and working port to the S/390, but that one is only 32-bit.

My (entirely unofficial) port, still in alpha stage, is at
ftp://ftp.scarlet.be/pub/slamd64/ - hopefully I'll be able to upload
another ISO later tonight with most of the known bugs fixed.

The 64-bit version is under development. Not far enough along at the moment
to release anything for testing, though.
