Question : Can a normal computer headset set be connected to a two way radio?
Headset: two pin
Two way radio: has only 1 pin (it only accepts a special headset set)
But I was thinking that I could unscrew the radio and solder the speaker wire to the one connected the build in speaker and the microphone to the build in mic. Can someone tell me I this will work out?

It depends on the radio. Vehicle radios can be anywhere from 8 ohm to 50 ohm speaker outputs. Handhelds can be from 16 ohm to 600 ohm outputs. Most Motorola handhelds are about 16 ohm outputs to the headset or speaker mics.
Transmit audio is a different story. Many two way radios put DC voltage on the mic line for amplified mic elements. They take close to 1/2 volt audio. Others only take a few millivolts. If your add on mic way overdrives the radio you can try adding resistors in line till it sounds good. 10k ohm or so.
After all that, it’s not going to sound very good. Computer mics are made to transmit up to 20khz. Most two way readios only handle 3khz audio and don’t sound good if you try to cram high frequency audio down their throats. Computer mics tend to be way too sensitive and pick up a lot of background noise too.
