Typically yes. If your modem runs over ethernet, plug it straight into the WAN port of any wireless router. If it's USB, you will need to buy a router that also contains a modem or you will only be able to access the net on your consoles while your PC is running (Internet connection sharing).

pretty much all half-decent wireless routers allow as many devices as you like online at once. We use the WRT54GL router which allows two laptops and a Wii internet access at once, whilst feeding internet over cable to three desktop PCs and an xbox 360. Works pretty well.

As i say, I can use multiple wireless devices at once fine with it.
