I have an IBM Thinkpad T42 that has a s-video port on the side of it. Can I use that port and a vga- svideo conversion cable to display the video of a different pc?

I don't quite understand your question. It is not clear what you want to do.
If you are trying to use your Thinkpad screen as a monitor for another PC it won't work. Sorry.

No, because that port is an OUTPUT port, and what you want is INPUT.
