Is it possible that we can use google maps within an android application?
For example :
I have an app, it shows my location on a map (using http://developer.android.com/reference/android/location/package-summary.html )
Can I then search for nearby locations, such as nearby pertrol stations? And show them on the map
Thanks

Yes.
Read up on MapActivity, MapViews and the LocationProvider et al. classes in the package that you've mentioned.
Start by looking at the following tutorial: Hello MapView
