Hello there, I would like to allocate more memory for Minecraft through the arguments in the Minecraft launcher.
However, I'm using a 32 bit system, so I don't know how to actually allocate more than 1G, and whether or not I even can in the first place. Any help would be appreciated.
Not happening. 1GiB is the limit to say at best for 32 bit system. You will need 64 bit to use more then 1GiB or memory allocation for heap space.
If you have 32 bit windows 7 or 8, your product key will work for the 64 bit version of SAME type (such as home premium). Should you want to go this route.

To give Minecraft 1G of ram just use this Java argument (JVM Argument in the Profile Editor): -Xms1G -Xmx1G
And I would recommand you this argument:
-Xms1G -Xmx1G -XX:PermSize=86M -XX:MaxPermSize=256M
I hope I have helped
