It is certainly possible to create a single Com add-in that targets multiple
versions of Office and multiple Office applications; you need to use the
IDT2Extensibility interface (not VSTO).

However, Custom Task Panes were introduced in Office 2007 and are *not*
available for any earlier version of Office.
