Not with the _native_ libraries: you can't link together PA-RISC
and IA64 code.

But you should be able to copy your existing PA-RISC Oracle and
VisiBroker libraries (i.e. copy your entire PA-RISC package).

It depends on what your app does. Most DB/CORBA apps I've seen
spend great deal of time waiting for messages or the DB (i.e. are
not CPU-bound). Such an app may perform sufficiently well even with
PA-RISC emulation.
