A server acting as web server can also host a DNS server. It's just 2
different services/deamons running on different IP ports (http/web
commonly uses port 80 and DNS querys uses port 53).
If you want the Apache web server service to act as a DNS server, it's
not possible as far as I know.

I don't know of any DNS server software for W98. Since DNS is quite a
important service I wouldn't recoment running it on Win9X platform. In
tesing/development environments you could replace DNS functionallity
with the hosts-file.
