I believe it's possible to run an X session on a Linux machine with no 
video card (a search for "Linux headless" seems to bring some promising 
results).  X can do pretty much everything over a network that it can do 
locally, AFAIK.  I can't think of many reasons that this wouldn't work 
when throwing QEMU into the mix - although without a GPU to help with the 
video processing, things might be a bit painful in terms of speed.
