You mean networking or hooking up XP and Vista OS systems? If so, then yes you can. It is actually very simple to do so. You can hook them up in an ad-hoc network, which allows file/print sharing without an internet connection, or you can use a router and allow them all to connect to the internet and share file/printer too. Or, you can simply allow them to share the internet connection with ICS--Internet Connection Sharing technology.
Here is some links you can use to get lots of information:

Just read up on it and then take it a step at a time. It is not really difficult, but when you have never done it before, set up a network that is, it can seem overwhelming. Just take it a step at a time and you will have your network up in no time.
Good luck and a happy holiday season.
