Yes, you can. I assume that you currently have all three attached to LAN ports on the modem and/or a wireless connection.

What OS is on the computers? For example in Windows 7 you can select the drive or files that you want to share, right click on them and then make changes to the sharing AND security tabs; in the security tab the easiest thing to do is to add a share group name Everyone and then set the sharing tab to the level sharing you want.

As long as all three are on the same network (wired or wireless doesn't matter) you just right click a drive or file and select sharing and set the attributes you want. For Windows 7 you must also set the security tab by adding an Everyone share group.

Also make sure that each machine is a member of the same workgroup, and WORKGROUP should be the default unless changed.
