It depends on the branch.
For an RAF Pilot, yes. For an Intelligence Officer (for example), absolutely not. The RAF Recruitment website is pretty clear on what is accepted for each branch.
I presume the Intelligence branches and trades are the exceptions and not necessarily the rule, probably because of the large amount of UK Eyes Only information they will be dealing with throughout their career. I'd imagine the ISR field of the multi-engine stream would be off limits to a Pilot who holds, or has held, a dual nationality, as well... but that's just speculation on my part.
