Anyone sincere can convert, though the process is long. And if you convert outside of Israel, whether to Reform, Conservative, or Orthodox, it will be recognized by the State of Israel, but not always by the Rabbinate. And yes, you will probably be able to move to to Israel, if you have papers from the rabbi who did the conversion. Google convert to Judaism, and many sites will be there to help.
