I would like to know whether it is possible for the computer to act as a BT headset through headphones/speakers connected to the computer. I have an MSI BT dongle, and I know that it is possible to use this with a headset, but not sure if what I want is possible.

Yes it is possible. It's also possible to use your BT headset for your PC. (Works with MSN audio chat anyway)

I've tried both setups: PC as a headset, and headset for PC. Works with my Billionton BT USB plug, HBH-30, and P800.

Your Bluetooth USB adapter or Bluetooth PC-Card need to support a certain profile for what you want to be possible. I am not %100 sure, but I think the profile that needs to be supported is Headset-AG. You can check this link for more info on Bluetooth devices supporting this profile.
