My understanding is unfortunately no. X servers can only draw to the visuals they know about, and if a server only has (for example) 8 bpp visuals, it means it does not have code (or hardware) to draw to 24 bpp visuals. I think you will have to use a client side library (libart etc.) to do the drawing if you must have 24 bpp drawing on all systems.
