No. The early Rav4's, 1994 -2000, the 1st generation were Corolla Crossovers, until completely re-designed in to their own in 1999 for the 2000 model year. But they still shared many similarities. But either way, there was a re-call for the ECU for mid-2000's Corollas. But nothing to do with the cat. And no updates or re-calls for the Rav4

Yes: https://repairpal.com/software-update-to-correct-false-catalytic-converter-failure- 032/problems/page/2 Service bulletin: TSB #EG01002 -- SUBJECT REGARDING ENGINE CONTROL MODULE (ECM) CALIBRATION UPDATE - MALFUNCTION INDICATOR LIGHT ON WITH DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODES P0420 OR P0430 AND ENHANCED ENGINE PERFORMANCE. *TT (NHTSA ID #634045, APRIL 12 2002)
