Is perl6 actually compiled then ran similar to java

It supports either, but defaults to single-step compile-run (like Perl
5).
I think that a transparent cache is envisioned for the future,
so that a compiled version is silently saved during the first compile-
run,
and future runs check the timestamps of the source and compiled
versions,
skipping the compile if the source has not been updated.
