If the distros in question also supply Xen-enabled kernels then this should be
possible (with some caveats):
RHEL / CentOS only supply PAE-enabled Xen kernels, so you'd need a PAE Xen to
host them.
If the guest kernel uses newer features than your Xen has available then it
won't work; however, most guest kernels probably have compatibility for older
Xens built in so this is less likely to be a problem.
For HVM you should be able to boot any native x86 kernel with the same
or "lesser" memory mode (i.e. a non-PAE Xen only boots non-PAE HVM. PAE Xen
boots both PAE and non-PAE HVM).
Cheers,
Mark
