The official word we received from Oracle was no. The distribution tape for Oracle v7.0.15 for 88Open (we're running DGUX 5.4.2.10) does not include forms 2.3. However, I moved the appropriate executables to the new $ORACLE_HOME/bin directory, and created a link to the old forms directory, and forms 2.3 seems to be working fine. We're testing right now, but no problems so far.
We created our v7 test database from a v6 export file, so the appropriate 2.3 tables were imported. A new installation (v7) won't have these tables.
