As repeated many times on this list, it's not possible with Windows Installer 
therefore it's not possible with WiX.

Windows Installer requires MSI's to have a platform specified which is 
generally either Intel for x86 platforms and either AMD64 or x64 for x64 
platforms. x86 MSIs will install on x64 systems but be limited to x86 locations 
by the Windows-on-Windows (WOW) subsystem. If you need to access x64 locations 
on an x64 platform (such as Program Files or non WoW6432Node areas of the 
registry) you need a x64 package which can't be installed on x86 platforms.

nabble.com or mail-archive.com have list archives available on the web which 
you can search at your leisure.

Subject: [WiX-users] single msi for 32-bit and 64-bit ??

Hi,

Using WIX, I need to create an msi that should work in both 32-bit and
64-bit machines.

I need to use separate dlls based on the OS Architecture in which my msi
is to be installed. 

Is there any way to achieve it?? 

 

Thanks,

S. Preethi.
