Can a Nintendo DS Lite read SD cards (like those for digital cameras and stuff)? Like, if I were to put a homebrew DS application on a (digital camera) SD card and put it into SLOT-1 of my DS, would it accept it and work?

No. SLOT-1 is not compatible with SD-cards. You need an adapter for that to work.
