Yes of course. If you're using Windows 7 it's supported by default, just create a wifi profile with sharing. If you're using XP you can install Connectivity. The concept of PAN is as simple as join a LAN. If your LAN allow Internet connect via a gateway, you can always point to that gateway in N900 to access to the Internet.

It requires a bit of setup effort but you can find the detail in previous discussion in talk.maemo.org. Hope this help.
