Sure you can! It's done using the HTML Embed tag.
Probably the most popular tool for this sort of thing is Macromedia's Flash (and shockwave), though there are many programs available.
Here's a couple of links:

Hope this helps!

There should be no spaces in the links. Make sure to remove any.

Use the EMBED tag - I'll deliberately leave the tag symbols (<>) off in this answer because I don't know if this web page will try to interpret them or not. Anyway, an example would be...
BODY
EMBED SRC="MovieName.avi" WIDTH=85 HEIGHT=120 AUTOSTART=true ALIGN=right
/BODY
What you're doing here is creating a dimensioned space in which your browser's media player plugin will apppear and execute. The .avi extension in this example can be any other video format extension youneed, eg mpeg, mov, etc - depends on the type of file you're using. You can also use the EMBED tag to show Shockwave movies.
The AUTOSTART attribute was used because sometimes the player's controls may not be visible, so starting the video automatically can be useful. If the controls are not visible, you may have to adjust the WIDTH and/or HEIGHT values.
ALIGN=direction is self-explanatory.
There is also a LOOP=true tag for playing the movie repeatedly.
All this should work in both IE and Netscape browsers.
For IE only, you can enter LOOP=n, where n is the number of repeats you want the movie played - or use LOOP=-1 or LOOP=infinite to play continuously.
Hope this helps.
