No, you cannot. By graphics port, you must mean AGP slot. There are PCI graphic cards available, but they are useless. Its better you get a new motherboard.

u can use a PCI graphics card, though the performance will be sluggish as compared to PCIe or even AGP

it depends on the level of motherboard

For PIII to P4 mb change, u can use optical drives, floppy, hdd, ram(if it is DDR) extra fans,all PCI cards, and even AGP(depends) + all extrenal hardwares(monitor, speakers,..........)
