So I have a laptop with the ability to connect wirelessly. However, I don't have wireless internet.

I also have a desktop computer with Internet through a DSL modem by Ethernet.

Is there any possible way to have my laptop share Internet with my desktop PC?

If there is wireless adapter on desktop, you can enable Internet Connection Sharing on desktop and set up ad-hoc wireless connection with laptop to share Internet.

The best way is to get a wireless router to set up wireless network and connect desktop to router with network cable and laptop to router wirelessly, finally both computers can access to Internet and share files.
