Sorry, no. Check the FAQ. Its all Java.

Which is a damn shame. Since Android is Linux (or stripped down version thereof), it should be possible. (I've used Perl on both the Zaurus and the Nokia N770/800).

Hopefully, enough developers will scream for C/C++ access that Google will relent (after all, libc is listed in their pretty architecture picture).

Maybe Google's Python dictator will be able to pry it open enough for Perl and Ruby to sneak in (tho Jython/JRuby may obviate the need for that).

Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
