I suspect the answer to this is "no", but here goes:
I have a monitor with inputs for DVI and VGA. I want to be able to share this display with two computers (one at a time, of course) that both have VGA only. I also have a DVI->VGA dongle that came with a video card that's in a different computer.
Can I connect this dongle directly to the DVI port on the monitor so that I can connect both VGA computers? I'd rather not resort to a kvm.

technically the DVI-I is integrated; DVI-A is the analog-only signal, DVI-D is the digital-only signal. Wiki's got a good reference. the monitor may accept a DVI-I or DVI-A signal (especially on older models) but you'll need to check the specs for particular models to know for sure.
