One bite at a time...
Welcome to the Android Forums!
In a nutshell, maybe...
The Samsung Captivate is a GSM phone currently on the AT&T network. T-Mobile is also a GSM technology network. Both use SIM cards in the phone. In theory you could take a T-Mo sim card and install it in the Captivate. So long as the SIM card had voice and data plans associated with it, it "should" work.
Recently AT&T accounced their intent to purchase T-Mobile. Barring push-back from the government, in a year or two, much of T-Mobiles network will become part of AT&T.
