Firstly, please have my apologies for getting back to your case after almost one month. I missed updating your case as I had a few cases titled "looking for files" and I was in the impression, this case has been updated.
Getting back to your question:
The DE5a-Net board kit comes with a Linux 64 bit driver, hence you should be able to use it with a 64 bit architecture.
This information is available in the user guide (Pg 133)

Alternatively, you ma use the Example Design generated by Quartus Prime Pro to get a reference design with drivers compatible for both x86 and 64bit systems,
You may refer to Section 1.9 in our user guide to generate the Example Design.
