nope. Gotta have the router, unless you can jump in on someone elses network. Your card should work up to 150 ft, so if a neighbor has an unsecured network you can piggyback.

yes they can. You will create what is called an "AD-HOC" Network. You can put both systems on this network and they can communicate with each other.
You can even share the internet without using a router. See the website below.

If they are both connected to the same wireless network, and each belong to the same computer workgroup name, then yes.
