I cannot attest to any particular mod's compatibility on OS X and i'd recommend keeping backups before monkeying around with your RTW files. P.S Sorry for the late-ish reply been rather busy the last couple of days.

You can try sites like www.moddb.com/ or www.filefront.com to see what mods are available, checking the Rome: Total War forums is also a good way to find out what the community is up to.

The file hierarchies should be the same within the Rome: Total War folder but be careful as putting anything in the wrong place will cause system instability.
