I have some code in my program:

_LIT(KMyAppName, "\\run.exe");
EikDll::StartExeL(KMyAppName);

So, can I do it in UIQ emulator?

Because i do not have the real  UIQ phone, I can just do it in the emulator.....

I think so.
But ensure your paths. paths usually are diferents on the  phone and emulator.

good luck

I have not finished the coding, so I have not tried yet.

Because I have heard that it is not possible to run multi-thread in emulator, so the above code cannot run, is that true?

Yes, it's sad but there's  no multitasking/threading on emulator. But what is your problem? If you use standard SDK on win, you could directly start the compiled program (for win!) by double-click the generated exe to test the behaviour.
If you are try to test/debug client/server-architecture- it's not so easy without real hardware, but search (not post) in the forum...
