No you can't use SQLDataSource, I'll have to refer you back to your earlier question about the same subject.

silverlight is client side you cannot use a sqldatasource

Essentially the features offered by Silverlight are just a subset of the full .NET framework.

If you need data in your Silverlight application you will have to call a Web Service that will hand you the data you need.

No. But take a look at RIA Services. It provides similar functionality...
