Several years ago I used Delphi 4 Pro on a Windows ’98 SE machine to create Delphi projects.
Would it be feasible to install the same Delphi 4 Pro on a Windows XP machine (or later OS, such as Windows 7) to view and update older Delphi projects?

I have run Delphi 4 on a variety of 32 bit operating systems without any problems, including 32 bit XP and Win7.
However, on 64-bit Windows 7, and other 64 bit varieties of Windows, including Windows Server 2008 R2, I have found that it is difficult to install, and does not run very well at all.
Moving your existing Delphi 4 code up to Delphi 2007 is probably not going to be very hard though. You should probably consider that option as well.
