X11 is not installed, by default, on any Mac OS X build that I know of.  Use of 
X11 is 'anti-thematic' to the Apple Human Interface otherwise called Aqua.  
There are efforts, lead by Eric Bachard, to produce a Apple compliant version 
of OpenOffice.org.   However, this will take more effort and is not ready.  For 
the time being, the only publically available version requires the installation 
of the X11 user package, which Apple provides on the installation media for 
Tiger (Mac OS X) and is available for download from the Apple support web site 
for Panther (Mac OS X 10.3).  
And the short answer to your question, no it is not normal to use X11 on top of 
Mac OS X.
