As far as I understand the current packaging - no. The X part of emacs uses X11 calls, so you need an X server (not necessarily XFree86, though). If you're ambitious, you may try to compile emacs from source and link it with the W11 library that comes with rxvt, although I'm almost certain there's a lot of missing functionality there. If you succeed in building emacs with W11 (and adding the necessary functionality to W11), I'm sure many on this list will be interested in the results.
