Is it possible to run a web server from Xp and use it for your website. is it possible to use a registered domain name like humpty. com and run it from xp and store all my html files on my pc. Im currently using dreamweaver 5 MX any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

I have apache with php installed on my windows xp, but only for testing puposes, but you could run a web server with windows xp with no problems. You can also use IIS instead of apache.

Yes, to all those. You can even have your own computer as a host. So, that others can browse your own computer. As long as your ISP doesn't know, who cares!
 
http://www.no-ip.com/ allows that exactly. Even if you have a dynamic IP.
