Not directly, since the PC would need a handsfree Bluetooth profile, which
isn't available AFAIK.

Get a Bluetooth headset.

My personal favorite is the Sony Ericsson HBH-30 (often found for cheap on
eBay).

I can confirm that this works OK on my PC (TDK BT Adaptor) but I'm told the
clarity is very poor at the other end so a BT headset is probably the best
answer. I use a Jabra BT200 which I got for £20 but, as John say, the SE
ones are very good.

HBH-30.
