Yes you can use a colour enlarger for B/W, just set all the filters to zero.

Alternatively you can use the yellow and magenta filters with multigrade
paper (Durst list filtration for each grade in their manuals).

Another source of liquid emulsion (and just about everything else relating
to darkroom work) is Silverprint (http://www.silverprint.co.uk/) which is in
London (near Waterloo) and also does mail order. I can strongly recommend
their shop for service and advice, although I've never tried mail order.
