OS 9 could only do it with fancy third party software.
However, you can have OS X doing the sharing in which case you share
the internet with any ethernet-enabled computer that could use DHCP
(i.e. OS 8/9).
PS You're not just limited to Airport or ethernet--Firewire does it
quite nicely as well (I've done it in desperation when I was using
Airport to connect to the base station and the ethernet port was
already in use with another computer).
