A X11 window manager can only manage X11 apps.
There's nothing keeping you from using the same X11 apps on OS X as you do on Linux.
Fair enough. I was super into XMonad when I used Linux, but never really found the need on Mac OS. I remember reading up on this topic back then, maybe that's why I didn't make the switch.
Those instructions are rather outdated; they don't work well with Lion or later.
