remote reporting server

Can you have SQL 2005 reporting services installed on a front end web server
without a local SQL engine (i.e. the reports DB is on a remote engine).
Reporting is running and working on the remote back end server which has the
engine as well.

If this is so, can the back end server be SQL 2005 Enterprise SQL 64 bit,
and the front end web server be SQL 2005 Enterprise SQL 32 bit

sorry,
