Ordinarily, yes.

You can't use i386 RPMs, period. The compiler you have on your
machine is irrelevant. The object code must be PPC. Either
you compile it native on a PPC box or you cross-compile it on
some other architecture for PPC. There's no way to turn an
i386 RPM into one for PPC without recompiling.
