My suggestion would be to write a little tool that does the equivalent
to this:

readelf -h /usr/lib*/libdl*.so | grep Machine | cut -c38- | uniq

This will list you the architectures for which you have dynamic loaders
installed. Since the dynamic loaders are hardcoded in all dynamic ELF
binaries this list will tell you binaries of which archs you can execute
on your system.
