First of all - VirtualBox earlier than 3.0 doesn't even support Direct3D in guests, so even if the game would run past the copy protection you couldn't play it. And the Direct3D support in 3.0 is highly experimental.

And since VirtualBox tampers with the code you run in it so it can emulate all kinds of things it's no wonder SecuROM complains. It might not complain if you were using VirtualBox' VT-x support, but even that's I'd find it rather unlikely to work.
