    The answer is yes....but you need to be willing to do a little work.
    First, you would have to install Linux on your Xbox, or some other OS that could run a web server. You can do this either by using certain programs to input the code to install Linux, or by putting in a mod chip with Linux. This, by the way, violates Microsoft's TOS, so I don't endorse, nor condone doing this. Anyway, then you need to connect to the Xbox, either by Telnet/FTP, or by putting in a CD with the web server you'd like. Personally, I'd go with www.apache.org

    After that, all you need to do is install it, and you're all set.
