Well it certainly is possible if you purchase a little program called wmwifirouter (well worth it). They offer a trial so you don't get screwed. wmwifirouter usually circumvents tethering costs...but that's not a guarantee, so make sure you test it lightly and check your bill, or make sure you have a tethering plan. Tethering plans are usually more expensive than signing up for home internet. Even without a tethering plan you still need an unlimited data plan (depending on how much data you plan to use).

Anyways, what wmwifirouter basically does is turn your phone into a wireless router by setting it to broadcast an ad-hoc connection.

As for the speed, that depends on your phone's internet speed. Don't reliably expect more than 1 Mbps though.
