Yes it is very possible, thats the way I do it.

-Go to my network
-Then click on the network and sharing tab at the top of the window
-Then click manage network connections on the left
-Then right click on the network adapter that is connected to the internet and go to properties
-Click on the sharing tab and check the first box that talks about sharing (if you have multiple ethernet connections then pull down the drop down menu and select the port that the 360 is connected to.

And there ya go, should be all set if you follow those steps. If your confused at all feel free to ask more questions or google "vista ics"
