Is it possible to run NeXTSTEP 3.3 on my Powermac G4/400? I've got a friend who can get me a copy, but we're not sure if it will run on my machine.
 
Yes... via VirtualPC. And actually I've heard that people were having problems installing it in VPC 6.x (my current VPC installation of NEXTSTEP 3.3 was originally done in VPC 4 and I'm using it in VPC 5).

Otherwise you'll need either a PC (older PC to meet the hardware requirements), a NeXT computer, a Sun computer (older SPARCstation) or an HP PA-RISC system (the 715s worked nicely I've heard).
 
On the other hand, it's my understanding that source code for Nextstep programs can be adapted to compile in cocoa with minimal effort.
