Without trying it, you cannot be sure. But, I'd hazard a guess that you
haven't a hope in hell!

There is software available, though, that let's you set up a virtual machine
within your physical machine. Take a look at http://www.connectix.com.

I'm not familiar with Paradox. But, I've found that most of my Windows 3.1
software runs fine, using the Windows 95 Compatibility Mode. You can
either use the Program Compatibility Wizard (Start button/All
Programs/Accessories/Program Compatibility Wizard), or it the software
installs and puts an icon on the desktop or an item on the Start menu, right
click either, then left click Properties, then click the Compatibility tab
for options.
