Yes you can.
How you go about it though (i.e. what connections to use/how you set it up) depends on what system you have, what ports it has (i.e. HDMI/DVI/VGA/S-Video), and what OS you're using :emotion-55:

Thanks for ur reply. I have DVI port in my monitor. But i am confused how can i get both the results? When i will use comuter then monitor will display system things if i want to use dvd player to watch a movie so that i want to shut down the system.
Thanks in advance.

I actually guessed that much. But we also need to know what connections/outputs the DVD player/system has?
On that point - and before we can advise you further... you'll need to clarify, whether you're talking about playing DVD's from a stand-alone DVD player (such as found in a home theatre setup), or from the DVD drive in your PC system/laptop)?
If you mean a stand-alone DVD player... we need to know what connections/outputs it has - i.e. S-Video, composite, VGA, HDMI etc?
If you're referring to using the one in your system... you need to tell us what system you're using, what connections it has (i.e. S-Video, VGA, DVI, HDMI), and what OS you're using :emotion-55:
