The first result in a quick Froogle search:

PCI-X slots can take either PCI-X or PCI cards.

A PCI card like that will limit you to "only" 133MB/s (= 1Gbps). That's enough for 42 concurrent streams of HDV or 6 streams of ProRes422. Even if the actual performance is half of that, I think you'll be fine...

It looks like there are plenty of Mac-compatible PCI-X cards anyway:
