No. RTEMS is a RTOS, so you write to the RTEMS API, not the underlying
bare metal.
However, RTEMS is very lightweight when compared to Linux so it can
run (with a appropriate BSP) on a lot more platforms than Linux can;
it doesn't even need or really use a MMU (other than a optional initial
setup, which is a BSP specific not RTEMS specific function).
