Bootcamp is Intel only. You can't run it on PPC Macs. An extremely slow way for you to run windows, however, is finding an old version of Microsoft Virtual PC.

You can install Windows on this machine using Virtual PC (as someone previously mentioned). I ran Windows XP using Virtual PC on a similar machine back in the day but it was extremely slow. I wouldn't recommend it.
