Yes, they can work together fine so long as you:
(1) delete tveeprom.ko from the ivtv directory in /lib/modules/(your
kernel)/...
(2) Remove the v4l cx88 modules (cx8800 and cx88_blackbird) when you boot
(3) THEN load ivtv
(4) THEN load

Here is how I do it on boot:
        modprobe -r ivtv
        modprobe -r cx88_blackbird
        modprobe -r cx8800
        modprobe ivtv
        modprobe cx88-dvb
        echo Pausing to let eeproms load
        sleep 5
        nohup /usr/local/bin/mythbackend >/var/log/mythbackend.log 2>&1 &

Good Luck!
