With a enough time, maybe but certainly not while the Empire is raining death upon the planet. They would have to act very quickly because it wouldn't take long for the fleet to destroy civilization.
The only element of attack or defense that Earth would have is SIlver Surfer. I think this entire debate comes down to The Empire VS Silver Surfer. Considering that we didn't see much of anything from the Surfer (in the movie) i really don't think it would take much to knock him off his board. I do think, however, he could tear through Tie-fighters like a flame thrower through paper but eventually the fleet's entire arsenal is going to be targeted on Surfer and i think thats to much for him to escape, given what we saw of him in the movie.
