Depends on what you mean run Tcl from Ruby. If you mean run a Tcl application from a Ruby application sure. If you mean invoke Tcl procs or load Tcl packages and run procs from that pacakge from within ruby probably that requires wrapping what you want done in an application that can be run from Ruby.
Can you be a bit more detailed about what you want to do

is there anyway to run Tcl from Ruby??
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
require 'tk'
Tk.load_tclscript(tcl_script_file, encoding=nil) # => use 'source' command
Tk.load_tcllibrary(file, pkg_name=None, interp=None) #=> use 'load' command
Tk.ip_eval(tcl_script_string) # eval the string as a bit of a tcl script
Tk.tk_call(arg, ....) # each arg is a token of command line
TkComm.window(widget_path) # get a widget object if the widget exists
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
If you want to call a Tcl script without Tk,
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
require 'tcltklib'
interp = TclTkIp.new(ip_name, false)
interp._invoke('info', 'patchlevel')
interp._eval('puts foo; info patchlevel')
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
# see '<ruby-src-tree>/ext/tk/MANUAL_tcltklib.eng'

Sure thing Ron I'm working on a project which migrate tcl framework onto
web browser , Rails is a tool i choose. So I believe that Ruby will be
able to run passthrough this :). so please give me some idea.

As you like. And use fullpath of the tcl file.

Well I'm probably being a heretic here, but had you investigated the Tcl browsr plugin? Jeff Hobbs at ActiveState could probably provide you with a fair bit of info on how usable that might be for your application.. which in this case would be to put the tcl framework directly inside the browser.
