In a case of emergency absolutely anyone can baptize anyone. If aspiring to be a Catholic, the proper way is to be baptized in a baptistry by a priest according to the rites and ceremonies of the Church. If in the absence of a priest your death seems imminent and baptism is desired, anyone can baptize you provided they do what the Church does by pouring water upon some part of your body (commonly the brow, but if pinned under something or inaccessible, any part of the body will do) and pronouncing the words, "I baptize you in the Name of the Father, and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit."
