Would never work. DS isn't powerful enough. Hell even pc's have problems emu'ing N64. There is a N64 emu for the PSP being developed, but you wont see it get ANYWHERE near pc emulation of the N64.

A real N64 emulator on the DS would be far to heavy (maybe 2~3 fps if you are lucky and it is very optimised).
What is an option is letting a rom run on the Nintendo DS, which then get's converted to a Nintendo DS binary.
There was an entire topic at the DSlinux forums about this.
