No this is a ROM file. This is what it says inside the file:

Have a look at this: http://www.gregdonner.org/workbench/wb_b32_40.html

OS3.5 was shipped in 1999. The above stuff would have been more believable if it said something like:
Amiga ROM(not RAM) Operating System and Libraries Copyright © 1985-1996 Amiga Technologies All Rights Reserved. 3.2 ROM exec 43.x (11.1.96)

Amiga tech mostly used v43.x numbers, and this was for the Kick/WB 3.2 intended for the Walker. I'm guessing the word 'RAM' (if you haven't just misspelled something here) is intended to reveal the fakeness of the file for a trained eye, while still fooling others.
