Sure, as long as your Internet provider allows it.

Yes, it is. I am running windows XP pro as my test web server!

I remember when i was reseaching this i took weeks to find something that worked and worked well...

i would try looking into WAMP, XAMPP (i'm using this) or one i have found recently is UniServer. But before doing that i would check with you ISP, they may be blocking ports.
If I am helping you and don't reply in 24 hours please send me a PM
