I can't speak for Xen, although I know someone to ask if no-one here can
help... which I suspect is extremely unlikely ;)

For Virtualbox, Look at VRDP, which I would expect you can port forward
over SSH.  The "--vrddport" and "--vrdpaddress" options should be used
here.

BTW, if you use VMWare Server instead watch your firewalling, IIRC
it opens several listening ports whether you want it to or not.
