The catch is that you'd then have to either have 2 wireless cards in
the laptop, hardwire the laptop to the router or have just the two
machines connected.

Ie, the nic in the laptop can't simultaneously be a 802.11g nic in ad
hoc mode connecting to the laptop, and an 802.11b/g nic talking to the
access point.  (That would effectively make the laptop a router, and
you'd need two interfaces for that, ideally far apart on different
channels as well to keep them from interfering with each other.)

Since the 802.11b/g cards I've seen all have a 'hump' on them, I'm not
sure if you could physically get two into the same laptop....

So, no, you probably don't want to do that.
