Is it possible to index and search through the Microsoft Word Documents with Lucene.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

As long as you can extract the plain text out of MS Word's propriatory binary format, yes.
If you can extract the text and create Java String objects with it, you can index it with Lucene.
