MythTV does not support any features of any cards. It supports
interactions with device drivers. MythTV does not support
the PVR-250/350, it uses the ivtv driver which supports the
PVR-250/350 cards. Myth does not support any WinTV cards. It
works with the bttv driver which supports WinTV cards.

Unless you have a video4linux driver for this card, the answer
is no. You may want to ask your questions about the possibility
of future device driver support for this card on the ivtv
mailing list.
