I was wondering if it was possible to display KML content on ArcGIS Explorer Online?

No, you can't display KML in explorer online. You can display ArcGIS server map, image and feature services.

You can create a javascript service that will view both data on a ArcGIS Server, and kml layers.  look at the extending ArcGIS Javascript for Google Maps API.  It is a combination of the API's.

For a recommendation to ESRI, add the option to add a kml to a ArcGIS Online Map.  That would be one powerful tool that could throw Google for a loop!  It would come under the add layers tool, I think it gives you options to ArcGIS Online, The Web, or ArcGIS Server.  I would add kml layer to this list.
