I use white bed sheets at the moment ( i do have a backdrop and stand, but cant use them for another 3 months, due to them being sent to me in error) Just point 2 lights at the backdrop (one on each side) and use my flash as a fill light for the the subject...

Yeah course you can - all my shots up untill today, were taken with lamps - actually my SAD therapy light came in very useful!!
Wattage can be whatever your happy working with - to lower the output from them, move the light further away fro the subject
Mine are 45w each....
