I have just set up a new laptop computer from home. Problem is, at work I
have access to a domain, and at home I do not.

Is it possible to use the same profile for both the Domain login and the
Local Computer login? (complete with wallpaper, documents, ect...)

Thanks in advance

Here's how to use your domain-enabled laptop at home (credit to MVP
Lanwench):

Note - you don't need to change to a workgroup just to access resources
on it. You shouldn't play with your laptop's network settings at all.
Once you've logged in using your domain account (using cached
credentials), and have an IP address on the home network, you can map
drives, use printers, whatnot, very easily - one way, in a command
line:

net use x: \\computername\sharename /user:computername\username <enter>
