No. IBM doesn't support IPX/SPX in OS/2 for LAN Server/Manager environments. 
It is only used by Novell in their NetWare client for OS/2, which is included 
in Warp Connect 3 and Warp 4. You can switch to TCP/IP, but only if you 
enable NetBIOS over TCP/IP or if you get an NFS client (this allows drive and 
printer mapping with TCP/IP like the way it's possible with NetBIOS).
