Yes, although this will require integration of code from the icedtea
project[1]. That turned out to be more work than I anticipated, but
I do have the basic OpenJDK working with exception of sound support:

tnn@ixp:bin> uname -smr
NetBSD 5.99.5 amd64
tnn@ixp:bin> ./java -version
openjdk version "1.7.0-internal"
OpenJDK Runtime Environment (build1.7.0-internal-pkgsrc_2008_12_30_22_38-b00)
OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM (build 14.0-b10, mixed mode)
