Can i run C code on dalvik VM on android ?

First of all, the Dalvik VM can only run (his own format of) java bytecode.
If you need to run C code on Android, you’ll have to use the Android NDK, write your C code, cross-compile it, and then you will be able to run it on your android platform.
If you need to use this code from a Android application, you will need to create a JNI interface to bind your C code to java (as described in the examples of the NDK), then your java application running on the dalvik vm will call some java libraries that will call your C code (as a standard library).
