Well, you didn't tell us anything about the router so it's a best guess, but fortunately for you that machine has every type of networking imaginable so yes, it'll be fine.

If you have a router, your Power Mac will pick up the signal, and Mac OS X picks up wireless networks seamlessly. However, I'm not sure if you want to buy a Mac with a Power PC Chip, as Apple has now moved away from that to Intel chips, as I'm sure you've heard. However, whatever Mac you buy, I'm sure you'll like it!
