Yes, it should work.

Ex. Dell T3600, it is compatible with E5-2600 series.

Mostly, all true X79 chipset motherboards supports E5-1600 series and E5-2600 series Sandy Bridge-EP.

You can use 2 x of 26xx same S-Spec or 2x of 46xx of S-Spec or 1x of 16xx on a dual proc board.

If you are asking whether you can mix 16xx & 26xx the answer is NO.
