No. The Ghan goes from Adelaide to Darwin. The train that goes East-west, from Sydney to Perth, is the Indian Pacific. You can get a train from Brisbane to Sydney, and then catch the Indian Pacific to Perth, but it does not travel there directly.
For current information on train fares for the Ghan, or any of Australia's great train journeys, see the related link.
You cannot travel from Cairns to Darwin on the Ghan. You would have to travel from Cairns down to Brisbane, where you would then need to take another train to Sydney. At Sydney you could catch a train to Adelaide, and only at Adelaide could you catch the Ghan to Darwin. Total travel would be about five days.
The Ghan train travels throughout Australia. It connects at Darwin station and goes through Adelaide, Tarcoola, Alice Springs, Port Augusta, and Tenant Creek.
