I am not sure but my guess is it should work. Since the underlying architecture of Max OS X is BSD unix. It should run with minimum modifications, give it a shot :-)))

you can download darwin x86 from http://developer.apple.com/darwin/

it is a strip down version of mac os x with out the GUI.

if you want a GUI you have to use either gnome or kde.
