To my understanding, yes and no, depends on what you understand to be a 
desktop. You need X for it and something to launch it. (Flash interface) 
+ Flashplayer (i believe Gnash can't do it yet ?)

The XBMC could be your "Desktop" and i believe, what the answers before 
trying you to say is you could launch Hulu Desktop from within XBMC (not 
proven as i can't - neither XBMC here yet, nor can i use hulu) So 
whatever else, you need X and display X on your TV.
