Yes, if your application is set to run 32-bit, it will use a 32-bit version of the framework even on 64-bit Windows.

Before your edit, you said you knew the location of the running clr. You can then also tell the difference in that the corresponding 64-bit version of the clr.dll would be located in Framework64.

C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework64\v4.0.30319\clr.dll
