Peter (from cyscoexpert) already answered your question

"Yes, MPLS will run on 2600 series router. Just run IOS Feature Navigator,
put MPLS features you need and find the IOS supporting them and how much
DRAM and Flash it requires."

Did you read the posts? Come on guys, let's try to read before posting!

Thank you for reply.

 I am thinking to set up home lab as following
 
  Provider Edge router(PE) x2
  Provider router(P) x2
  CE router
 
 MBGP and OSPF run between PE routers and
 OSPF run between P and PE.
 Static,BGP will be using between PE and CE router.
  
 Does 2600 or 4500M router support under above
 environment?
