No, sorry, they are completely different machines, and there is no upgrade path to turn a PPC of any type into an Intel. On the bright side, used low-end Intel iMacs are a lot less expensive these days, so I bet you could sell your PPC and buy an Intel, and only end up spending around $300.

You can find low end older Intel iMacs at www.gainsaver.com (http://www.gainsaver.com/Catalog/List.as...)
or for even lower prices but more risk from eBay. Here's a list of the iMacs, just go down to where "Core Duo" starts: http://www.everymac.com/systems/apple/im...
