Then is it possible/practical to connect to a VPN machine on your LAN
and use the VPN's machines connection?

For a simplistic example, say I've got a wireless router gateway, with
a cable connected OpenBSD server, and I connect to the server 's VPN
via the router wirelessly from my laptop.

VPN only secures traffic to and from the gateway, not *among* machines
connected to the AP. If your AP is OpenBSD then VPN would work but most
off-the-shelf AP's cant act as VPN endpoints and for those WEP and WPA
are the only ways to secure your all your wireless traffic.
