Welcome to the forums...
Yes it can... look here and here. These threads will give you an idea of what to do and expect
The most you'll get looks to be about 1862 MHz as the fsb only goes to 133. But hey... that's still a 400+ MHz improvment. Your gonna want to keep an eye on your temps though. What do you have for cooling?

The 400 part isn't exactly your processors FSB... the processor is on a 100 FSB... then it's multiplied 4 times to make 400 for the memory (RDRAM). P4's run pretty hot... things to improve airflow:
Move your IDE cables around... perhaps even round them or fold them in half and tape them so that air can move past them easily.
Add some more fans if you can... for every fan bringing air into your case... have another fan moving the air out (eg. one 80mm blowing in 50 CFM... one 80mm blowing out 50 CFM)
Use some fine sandpaper and smooth the bottom of your heatsink on your processor... and then put some thermal compound on the processor die before reattaching the heatsink... I'd recommend ArcticSilver 2 or 3. But you can also pick up cheap stuff at electronics stores.
FANS FANS FANS... or make the bold leap to watercooling... but for now just focus on airflow

putting some arctic silver 3 on the heatsink is the best thing u can do. youll see a 5-10c diff in temps if u do it right. heres a link on applying: http://www.arcticsilver.com/arctic_silver_instructions.htm
and a good place to buy with no shipping: www.svcompucycle.com
thats where i get all mine from
