Yes, making a Dreamcast portable is possible.

It's hard, but possible.

Yes, get a ethernet->wifi dongle. Costs ~$60-$80.

Would be cool to hack the modem expansion jack to wire in a WiFi PCI card, but I'm just dreaming. Would be interesting though.

*Edit*
Well, wireless would require some form of software to connect as well. So, the dongle that the other guy mentioned would be your best bet. You would also need the Network Adapter that replaces the modem too though.
