I don't see a reason why you shouldn't be able to. I'm running 64-bit Vista with a 32-bit copy of Windows XP in a Microsoft VM. I don't see any reason why it should be any different on Server 2008.

I've read that 2008 will be available in both 32- and 64-bit versions (the last server OS to be available in a 32-bit version, according to MS), and I want to 64. I'm concerned, though, about a few older apps we have that be incompatible with 2008--particularly a 64-bit version. I've read that one of 2008's strong points will be its built-in virtualization abilities. I've played around with desktop OS virtualization (I'm running an XP VM with Microsoft Virtual PC on my Vista machine), but never virtual servers. So my question is this... On a 64-bit Server 2008 machine, can I run a 32-bit Server 2003 virtual server?
