I have a question that I feel silly asking, but I can seem to find a definitive answer anywhere:

Can I set up a subdomain that is purely numeric such as 2009.my.domain.com? Are there any ramifications in doing so?

Yes numeric domain names are supported by just about everything. The only pitfall I can think of is it's more easily confused by end users.
