Will newer wireless adapters work in this model?

I'm interested in possibly installing bluetooth and wifi modules in this iMac. Before doing so, I thought I'd see if this model can use newer airport extreme cards as well as bluetooth 2.0/2.1+EDR modules. Any chance the connectors and such will allow for this?

TIA! :-)

This machine uses the AirPort Extreme card: [linked product missing or disabled: IF143-001]

Here's the bluetooth card: iMac G5 17" EMC 1989 or 20" EMC 2008 Bluetooth Card

The 1WXCVR-USB 1 Watt USB Transceiver will give you ten times the wireless range:
