Assuming that you have device with Windows Mobile on it it should be ok, though you'd have to find out what version of the .Net Compact Framework it has installed on it.

Here's more information:

Depending on your exact needs and hardware, the Micro Framework runs .NET (though only C# is supported) on pretty resource-constrained devices. It doesn't require an OS (it is the OS).
