You don't need to.

Anything inside the <applet></applet> tags that is not a <param> is ignored
by a non-Java enabled browser. Therefore, you can put your alternative
images/text inside the <applet></applet> pair. For example: 

<applet codebase=classes code="NervousText.class" width=400 height=50>
<param name=text value="Quake Information">
<img src="quakepic.gif" width=400 height=50 alt="Quake Information">
</applet>
