It's capable of wireless unless there is no wireless adapter installed. Is your question really whether you have a wireless adapter? If so, look in Device Manager. Is there a wireless under network adapters? What, if any, errors or warnings?

Desktops don't usually ship with wireless network cards. If you didn't install one, there's probably none installed. You'd see something in Device Manager and an antenna sticking out the back (or a place to connect one).
