No.
iChat AV requires G3/600mhz minimum in order to do any of the AV functions.
Patching it with iChatUSBCam only brings that minimum down to G3/500mhz. The 233mhz iMac is still too slow.

So I can send it to my parent's house. A full Mac mini is still outside my budget.

Try iGlasses. It may help you bypass Apples minimums.
Quote from their site.
"iGlasses also activates video conferencing on G3 computers which fall below iChat's minimum requirement of 600 MHz. "
