As is, the QEMU PowerPC platform will definitely not boot a VxWorks image.

It is possible to boot a VxWorks image using the x86 system emulation. 
You would have to create a floppy image and pass that in for your
vx-boot loader.  Unless you are also putting your kernel image on the
floppy, you would need to invoke qemu to use an intel e100 nic and make
sure the VxWorks BSP is configured properly.
