There aren't any full-size pci slots in those systems, so no, the pvr
250 will not work.  If you're in love with the form factor, consider
running separate front and backends.  The small pci should be able to
handle the frontend job without too much problem (assuming the
hardware is all supported).

if you have an old system, like you mentioned, the pvr *50 series will
probably serve you well for capturing.  Get that machine set up
solidly running mythtv and then install mythfrontend on your other
system.
