Yes, I have installed 6.2/amd64 and 6.3/amd64 on esx 3.0.x and esx 3.5,
no special adjustments needed. As guest operating system I choose "Other
(64bit)".

On esx 3.0.2 I manually change "Advanced Settings/Misc/Misc.Timer/MinHardPeriod"
from 400 to 100 (default on 3.5) and set kern.hz="100" on the guest
machines.
