If you mean set up a server that is not connected to the internet, no, 
unless your friend is in the same house or location as you, in which case 
you can just network your 2 computers. If you mean you want a server that is 
online but NOT a public server, yes. But it will be a dedicated server, not 
a listen server and you will need a separate box. Just add "+set dedicated 
1", instead of dedicated 2, (without quotes.) If this doesn't make any sense 
as I suspect, see the tutorial you already have in start/quake iii 
arena/quake iii arena help system/dedicated server information. You can 
speed up the transfer of maps by ftp'ing them to a host site and having your 
friend connect to that and download them from the ftp host to his computer. 
If you need more info, remember google is your friend. There is still plenty 
of server info out there you can access.
