No.
In fact - you cannot connect from a Stored Procedure to anything. And if you can (using dynamic sql), you should not.
You connect Oracle, and access Informix (data) though a database link, which is part of the query, which may be in a stored procedure. Or function. Preferably packaged.
Look up database link, and ask detailed questions later.
