?
I have 3 batteries :
2x 950 mAh + 1x 1150 mAh (all of them are 3.7v)
And I'm going to connect them together and make a portable recharge-able battery charger for my phone

My question is :
1. Can I charge them directly with computer USB port?
2. Can I charge my phone directly using these batteries ?

If not, what do I need?

Hmm, I think you may have to charge them seperately in your phone via USB, unless you can have the wires at the right ohms. Interesting idea though :)

1. No - Li-ion batteries have 3,7V and USB have 5V, second is Li-ion needs special charging control microprocessor - without it the can overcharge and explode, don't try it!!
2. No - you need an step-up circuit to get 5V on the output which is need to charge the phone.
