Yep, that's perfectly possible. You can either buy a converter (such as this or this one) or you can hack your own old USB gamepad (which seems alot more fun and cheaper than the purpose built converters).

However the Catweasel is apparently severely lacking in software support. I remember reading something that almost nothing worked under Win NT deratives (perhaps I'm wrong, actually I hope I'm wrong).

No idea, I found that page after some quick googling. Perhaps there are better DIY-project available, you might find better hacks if you google a bit.
