PC software will not run on a Mac.
However, you may be able to find someone who will trade with you, or you might be able to re-sell the PC version and buy the Mac version with that money. eBay is a good starting point to get an idea of what it might cost.

VPC is fine if you need to open the occasional PC app. It is *not* an appropriate solution for daily use in most cases, particularly with graphics apps or games.
