Yes you can!
Just get WASTE from http://waste.sourceforge.net, using the network's internal IPs. Or, alternatively, turn on Windows File and Printer Sharing.

Sorry for the OP (operating system) i should have been more clear.

If you are running Windows XP there is a wireless network setup wizard (control panel)
