I am running Arch64 and current driver opencrhome does not work very well with my video card. I don't see via driver in repos. I found it in AUR instead. My box is up to date. Can I replace the current driver with this one from the AUR without breaking Xorg or anything ?

I don't know, but it's pretty easy to set it back. search around in the arch wiki's X11 article to find out how.

Define "breaking". Worst case, it won't work and you'll have to reinstall (through Pacman) the current driver and change the line in xorg.conf back, all from the console.

yes I tried it. There is xf860video-via in AUR, so I tried building it using ABS makepkg on it I get this error:
In drm.h ..
error: requires specific qualifier before uint32_t
