Running binary built on 32-bit OS to run on 64-bit OS

Is it always possible to build a binary built on 32-bit OS to run on 64-bit OS? If not what cases it is possible and when it is not possible. If it is not possible why is it not possible in some cases?

Depends on your OS. On Windows all 32 Bit binarys should also run on 64 Bit. On Linux it also works if you install the 32 Bit librarys. On BSD it's the same as on Linux AFAIK.
