Actually since this printer doesn’t have a NIC in it, then the first answer is no. Unless you have another PC, for example if you have a desktop PC, but you are wanting to print from your laptop.

If that is the case then the answer is yes. You simply hook the printer up to the desktop, and then go to the printer properties, and share it. If you are networked, i.e. your pc’s are in the same workgroup or domain, and you have file and print sharing turned on, then you should now be able to connect to the printer from your laptop.
