Can I load Windows 2003 server (trial) on my home PC which currently has XP
professional on it? Will it simply show up as an option to select either XP
or Windows server when booting up?

Yes, but install to a separate partition than the one XP is installed on.
The following Knowledge Base article explains about some problems you may
run into later if the need arises to reinstall or repair XP:
