It would depend on the cable modem. Generally you can plug cable modems into a switch and share them, but you would need to check the specs of the particular unit to be sure.

A router (pronounced /'rautər/ in the USA, pronounced /'ru:tər/ in the UK and Ireland, or either pronunciation in Australia and Canada) is a computer whose software and hardware are usually tailored to the tasks of routing and forwarding information

you cannot, this is because the adsl modem internet port is a phone line connection not a cat5 connection. Otherwise you could have connected the internet line to your cable modem then to your adsl router wan port and simply connect the 2 or more computers to the lan ports of the adsl router
