Is DCE RPC compatible with ONC RPC?

No. DCE and ONC both use the concept of the Remote Procedure Call, but the wire protocols that they use are not compatible. You will need to use either DCE for both client and server, or ONC for both client and server; both products are available for most platforms. It is possible for a single program to use both DCE and ONC. Thus a server could be built to server both DCE and ONC clients, or a gateway could be built to accept one kind of RPC and forward to a server of another kind.
