Can VMware Workstation v. 6.5.5 build-328052 be installed in a Windows 8 (64-bit) environment?

I have been running this workstation in a Vista environemnt (both 32-bit and 64-bit versions) for at least the last 2-3 years.  My objective has been to run a number of older, 16-bit dBASE programs that I developed in an earlier century.  Recently, my laptop crashed and I invested in a new one, which comes with the Windows 8 (64-bit) platform.  Can my version of VMware be installed in a Windows 8 environment?  I would probably install a 32-bit version of Vista or XP as my guest system.  (Since the Vista came with my crashed laptop, I suppose I would have to find another copy of the software for installation.)

 

Or, has Windows 8 built into its system zero capability of running any 16- bit software?

 

Thanks in advance for any thoughts on the subject.
