Can you use remote desktop connection with Windows XP Home? I would like to
set up a connection using a host computer with XP Home and the remote
computer also has XP Home.

Not what one would qualify as 'actual' Microsoft Remote Desktop. No.
Windows XP Home has the client - but not the hosting capability.

You can use third party tools - like UltraVNC however. (Free.)

AFAIK remote desktop is not available in Home edition....
You can use Remote Assistance however, which uses Live Messenger....
