Thats hard to judge from here. AFAIK the LX was a budgetversion of the BX. It depend on wether it is a slot or socket of cause. I would check the site of your motherboardmanufacturer if I were you.
if i'm not mistaken the 440lx was a single slot cpu and the 733mhz celeron cpu is a flip chip, square peg no go in round hole.

The 440LX actually was the chipset before the BX and used to support the P2 chips up through 333MHz. You really should check with the board maker. There is a good possibility that your board won't support a multiplier high enough to make that chip run at full speed.
You would also have to find a Slocket adapter, since that Celeron is likely PPGA or FC-PGA and your board is Slot 1.

Even if it 'works' you're going to have a problem with the 133MHz FSB with that chipset. Basically, it's not worth it, since you'll need to get some sort of adapter. A K7S5A mobo and a 1GHz Duron is dirt cheap and will way out perform the combo you're asking about.
