I am afraid you need a NIC and an account provided by your mobile carrier/ you should contact your carrier.

As far as technology is concerned, of course youcan!!!

Most of the carriers have USB data cards available utilizing EVDO on CDMA or GPRS/Edge on GSM. Monthly rates vary with the carriers along with data speeds and data limits. Go to the towers and see if they have any identifing signs then get a data card from one of the carriers.
