Sam,

No.
If you require a Domain environment then you need to use a Server OS like
Windows Server 2003.

Greetings --

To create a domain, you would need to start with a server
operating system, such as WinNT 4.0 Server (soon to be obsolete),
Win2K Server, or Windows Server 2003. WinXP Pro, however, is an
excellent choice for a client OS to use on the domain's workstations.
