Yes, easy to do and a great idea.
Apachefriends has a site where they distribute versions of xampp with Apache, PHP and MySQL for Windows, Mac or Linux. Then you can develop and test and learn locally.

Probably related to Microsoft's built in firewall.
I use primarily a Mac (though I have to use Microsoft at work) so my expertise with XP is limited. Here is a quote from the xampp website FAQ:
Quote
But here, Microsoft delivered a new firewall. This firewall blocks the important ports 80 (http) and 443 (https) and the server does not want to start (anymore). The fast solution: Deactivate the Microsoft firewall with the toolbar and try to start xampp once more.
Of course everybody also can define the own firwall exceptions in the security center. The following ports are needed for a basic functionality:
http 80 (HTTP)
https 443 (SSL)
mysql 3306
And for all other servers in XAMPP:
ftp 21
smtp 25
pop3 110
imap 143
AJP/1.3 8009
http-alt 8080 (Tomcat Default Port)
Looks like you have to either turn off Microsoft's internal Firewall (which I do at work because I have other - better - protection in place) or configure it to allow the ports listed above.
