Is it possible to have Proxmox installed on a box that does not support virtualization so the cpu, memory & storage space may be utilized in a cluster?

Hi,
you can use an host, without hardware-virtualisation. But the host must have an 64-bit cpu.
In this case you can only use OpenVZ CTs - or use the host for quorum in the cluster.
"local" storage (except ceph/drbd) is allways local and for the VMs/CTs they are running on this node usable only.
And also the memory are used by the node and local running VMs/CTs...
You can use such an node for quorum and as ceph-node (drbd makes not much sense, without the possiblity to run the VMs either on the host - perhaps far safety?).
Of course you can also serve storage via nfs for other nodes (for backup/template), but you have an SPOF.
