You can, but you don't want to.  It's one of many techniques used by
criminals to breach security.  You have to use some means of flooding
one of the machines' interfaces with so much traffic that it can't
respond as it should to IP traffic, then 'steal' packets to which it
would otherwise respond before it has a chance to do so.

You aren't thinking of becoming a criminal, are you?
