If this is the case you could run a 64bit system, the difficult thing is how to get it booted ;) IIRC the only debian installer iso that will boot such a device is the netinst iso. If you use this to install a 64 bit system you will probably have to do a chroot into the new system after the installation has finished and manually install the grub-efi-ia32 and grub-efi-ia32-bin packages to be able to boot the newly installed system. I had this problem last year with a lenovo laptop and finally ended up with sparky linux (which is basically stretch with a small number of sparky specific extras), where this procedure worked well. Back then sparky was the only distribution I could find whose install disc would boot that device (netinst was no option there, since there is no wifi ootb with my lenovo toy). Of course I might be completely wrong, it is just a guess that your device suffers from that same 32bit UEFI issue.
