Operating System on x64 can be deployed with boot image x86

Hi,
I want to know if there is any limitation to deploy Operating System and Wim image on x64 (64 bit) using a boot image x86 (32 bits)
Thanks

Hi, 
That is what I'm trying to accomplish because during the years with SCCM 2007 we were available to deploy x64 OS
(windows 7, 8, 8.1) using x86 boot image without any problem. Since we migrated to SCCM 2012 R2 CU 2 we have experimenting different and
intermittent issues:
we are using x86 boot image to deploy x64 OS and
x64 drivers package. When the system reboot to start the setup, we get a black screen with a movable cursor (but nothing to click on!).
when I change the task sequence to use x64 boot image (note: using the same x64 OS and same drivers package) the process continue with success.
I'm searching any technical documentation from Microsoft to better understand this issue. What can be the reason why it work fine with x64 boot image and not with x86.
