Depends on what model they are as some have and others done have mics. Be aware that some devices will need an adapter to use the mic and earbuds at the same time.
Other than that you should be good just plug them on and make sure they are set as input and output devices

Does your Pc have a microphone jack? Plug the earbuds into those and see if the mic works. If It does you will need to get an adapter to use both at the same time.

It's a 3.5 mm 2 male 1 female adapter. It looks like this. You can probably get it anywhere.
