You will need to convert your design to a bonafide WordPress Theme. WP Theme development is a specialty skill.

If you've never done it before, I recommend starting with a simple WP Theme and try your hand at customizing it. It's much simpler than building WP Themes from scratch.

Well, kind of...Dreamweaver could help you modify a WordPress theme and get it to your WP installation. However, if you don't fully understand how the PHP in WordPress works, it would essentially be just a pile of files, filled with what looks like code gibberish. There's nothing built into DW that will allow you to open a page and make changes. WP pages are made on the fly by the server, from a multitude of code fragment include files and information stored in a database.
