Circuit Board crosstalk software?
(OP)
I'd like to take a gerber file of a circuit board and load it into a program that could tell me the crosstalk between different circuits on the board. Is there anything out there that would do this?

The reason I am not certain if a tool exists that can do this with a gerber plot is that the cross talk is going to depend on a lot more factors than a gerber plot typically contains. These factors include the height of the trace above the reference plane, proximity of the victim and agressor traces, and the load and source impedances.
I believe that what you need is refered to as a field solver as it numerically solves the silmultaneous set of partial diff-eqs that calculate cross talk, reflections, etc. The pcb tool that I use has one built into it and you have to provide a lot of information about the components to get it to work correctly. Undoubtedly there are some third party tools that would do the trick too if the PCB tool exports a common format.
