There is nothing in Wireshark that can run in kernel mode! It's 100% user-mode code.

If you mean "can it be run without root privileges on Linux?", that depends on whether the dumpcap component is installed with elevated privileges. That can be done on Debian and on Debian derivatives such as Ubuntu; I don't know what installation options for that are available on RHEL.
