Yes, what you want it's possible.
If the client in the laptop it's XP then you probably need pptpclient
or OpenVPN on both sides. If it's Linux you can choose between OpenVPN
(very easy to install) or OpenS/WAN (complicated, but can work with a
great variety of devices), on both sides.

The only people for me are the mad ones -- the ones who are mad to live,
mad to talk, mad to be saved, desirous of everything at the same time,
the ones who never yawn or say a commonplace thing, but burn, burn, burn
like fabulous yellow Roman candles.
