Nope, you can only use DDR with DDR motherboards and DDR2 with DDR2 motherboards - the slots are phyically different. Currently only newer Intel systems can use DDR2 and AMD only uses DDR (for now, the new M2 socket will switch to DDR2).

Also, currently DDR2 is not really much, if any faster, from what I've read.
