So long as you have a good heatsink/fan setup and good ventilation I would go for it. You may not be able to achieve as high of an overclock because of the AGP/PCI bus but it will run faster and better regardless. If you haven't tried overclocking before then read up on the subject 1st. If you'd list your system spec's someone with a simular system might give you some good sample settings.

If you are new to Oc'ing then the one piece of advice I would give is make sure you can afford to damage your rig (by accident of course). If you can't then don't do it, if you can then go for it.

Best of luck!
