I don't see why not. The first thing to ask yourself is what kind of
network you want - what do you want to accomplish? If you will be
sharing broadband Internet access as well as files and printers, the
easiest thing to do is buy a cable/dsl router. Here is a link to a
simple explanation of networking from Linksys:

Of course, you don't have to buy Linksys equipment! After you've gone
through the "Educate Me" links at the Linksys site, if you need more
help, post back to this thread.
