No. SWL (shortwave listening) can not be done with a typical radio scanner. A typical radio scanner receives FM signals. Most shortwave is either AM or SSB, neither of which can be received by FM radios.
Receivers that can be used for SWL are very common and are not very expensive. I've bought several at yard sales for only a few bucks. There are scanning radios that will do all modes (FM, AM, SSB, etc), but they cost more, and you're much less likely to find them at yard or garage sales.

What kind of equipment does one need to get started as a short wave radio operator?
Amateur short-wave radio operators (often called "ham radio") must be licensed before they can begin broadcasting. Broadcasting equipment ranges in size and price from a few hundred to several thousands of dollars. Larger "sets" are generally the most expensive and most powerful. RadioShack is actually a very good plae to learn more about all of these devices, as that is why they got started. Listening to shortwave broadcasts can be done very easily and with simple and relatively inexpensive equipment.

What does sw on a radio stand for?
"SW" stands for "short-wave". That's the label out of the 1940s and 50s for the radio bands at higher frequencies than commercial AM broadcast. They're used for international broadcast, and a lot of other services. The term is very imprecise, and doesn't refer to any hard and fast range of frequencies. When people used to talk about "short-wave", they were generally referring to the bands maybe from 1.6 MHz to 30 MHz. The bands included on your radio with the "SW" label on it probably fall into this range. There isn't as much interesting listening on those bands as there was a few decades ago; but you should still scan them, slowly, some evening, just to see what you can find, if you've never done it before.
