The two are mutually exclusive. Not beause of Squid but because the two
are for different OS:es.

IP-Filter do not exists for Linux-2.4 (well, not the components needed
for transparent proxying anyway).

Linux-2.4 netfilter do not exists for any OS:es except Linux-2.4, and
currently Linux-2.5 development versions. It is too early to say if the
transparent proxy support will be the same in Linux-2.6.

Linux-2.2 (and 2.0) do not require any of these options for transparent
proxying.
