I'm not sure I fully understand you. You can run multiprotocol BGP between two PEs to exchange routes between them however if the PEs don't support MPLS and you are trying to create L2 and/or L3 VPNs you will be hard pushed to get any traffic flowing :) Normally MP-BGP would assign an MPLS label value and advertise the prefix and label to the neighbouring PE. If your PEs don't support MPLS I guess a label might not even be allocated by BGP so they might not even advertise the prefix.
