The DVX uses a 72mm thread. You can stack filters, but if you get too many of them on there, you'll start to see vignetting at wider zoom settings.
 
If you're planning to use both filters (stacked) together it may be worth to have a look at the hybrid UV-PL-Cir from Hoya's Ultra Series. It combines effects of the 2 filters in a single slim ring. Very nice filter with a great coating. More info at:

Note that the Ultra series doesn't have any front threading, so you won't be able to stack any additional filter.
