I don't think so. You are allowed to have a number of units that require no support cost (except in a Democracy or a Republic).

True. But often the AI is paying gpt to another AI civ (in return for for techs, for example), so they still might go bankrupt even with free unit support. Especially if you have managed to blitz many of the AI's cities in less than 20 turns -- they lose income rapidly, but still must pay other civs.
