No GAE wont really do this.
GAE basically speaks HTTP - and over a CGI model. I.e. requests/responses.
So a http requests comes in, a GAE script processes, it sends back
some data (usually HTML but doesnt have to be) and then when the front
end server gets the responce it forwards it back to the user.
Probably a cheap VPS hosting somewhere will be best.
