If you create a swap partition in Mepis, it will be autodetected and used by DSL. No additional work is needed on your part.
As for sharing the /home partition, I would not recommend it. In order to get it to work with DSL, you would need to disable the fstab rebuild routine at boot time and then rm the contents of the existing /home directory so that you can use it as a mountpoint. Finally, you will need to mount /home every time that you boot up, early on in the boot process. Which probably means adding a new script or modifying an existing one early in the init process.
I'll say it again: I wouldn't recommend doing it, but anything is possible.
Good Luck.
