I have installed 64bit Eclipse on my 64bit Win7.

Can I use now 32bit JDK resp J2SE resp J2EE
for my Eclipse installtion?

Or must Eclipse match always the JDK/J2SE/J2EE version?

If you are using 64-bit Eclipse, you must use a 64-bit JRE to run it.
If you are using 32-bit Eclipse, you must use a 32-bit JRE to run it.

Instead, if you are talking about the JDK used to compile/run your own
Java programs written with Eclipse, I think you can use any JDK, either
32 or 64 bit (that is: you should be able to add any JDK in the Java |
Installed JREs preferences page).

Ok thank you.

What about all the Plugins?
Do all Plugins designed for 32bit Eclipse work automatically in a 64bit Eclipse as well?

Yes, unless it's a really low level one.
