yes and you might need a industral type one meaning one designed for many connection and long distance depending on how many and how far away the computers are
also since its not as secure if you are going to do that use either WEP or WPA data encrypting

You can use it in lieu of a regular router or firewall. If you can't do that, you should run it in wireless access point mode. Not all wireless routers have that capability, however, so check the docs carefully before you buy.
If you're not the business owner or responsible for IT, you need to coordinate this with your IT department first. Many businesses do not allow unapproved wireless devices for security reasons. And improperty deploying a wireless router can REALLY mess up a computer network! (Rogue DHCP servers, common to wireless routers, drive me nucking futs at work.)

It can depending on the distance from PC to PC and also the number of PC you want to network. It wouldn't be as secure as say a wired network but if you have a small office you could use it.

You can, but it's limited in area and speed. Wireless routers support only 54Mbps
