Are you asking if your system can run OS X? Because it can, but the end result will be quite slow. You're fine, except for the processor speed. I would really reccomend finding a G3 upgrade card, and a 1MB one if you can. It makes a world of difference, from what I understand.
Also, no offense, but there is no reason to run OS X so far, unless you just want to play with a new toy or are doing software development, or if you are doing some type of file serving-web page hosting arrangement. On some of the newer machines, there is a good reason, but unless you can think of a reason to run OS X, there isn't one right now. Maybe in a few months; and most likely if it's software related, it won't run well on a 133MHz 604 anyway.
