Yes. All Core 2 Duo CPUs support 64-bit. From Wikipedia:

Intel Core 2 (including Mobile processors since "Merom")

From the Microsoft minimum specs, you'll need at least 2GB, which you have. You might notice a modest performance increase from 64 bit, but it won't be huge.

Of course, the more RAM, the better!
