Alex,
[Quoted] No. Forms 4.5 uses PL/SQL version 1, while tables are a feature of version 2. What you can use in Forms 4.5 are Record Groups. They are essentially the same as PL/SQL tables. They can have multiple columns and can be populated, in fact even created automatically, from a query.
You can iterate them quickly, and they are dynamic. If you need another row, you just add it.
They don't have all the attributes of a PL/SQL table. There's no NEXT method or COUNT. But you can keep track of those sorts of things yourself with little trouble.
