Q - question

Can I use RAL color palettes in AutoCAD?
A - answer AutoCAD in older versions doesn't support entities in full colors (truecolor). Complete support for truecolor, Pantone and RAL palettes is available in AutoCAD 2004 and higher. Other palettes are available from paint manufacturers (e.g. Resene Paints, Benjamin Moore).

In older versions you can use the add-on application M-Color (www.motivesys.com).
