Can I use this to create a form that will search the posts on our site and return the ones that match?

form to search posts

Technically this isn't something Gravity Forms can accommodate on it's own. It could certainly be used as the front end for a search, you can actually already do that. The problem is the archive page that shows the results... that isn't something Gravity Forms does.
If you configure a search page that accepts query string parameters for the data that it returns then you can use a Gravity Form to build a search form that redirects to this page and passes the field values so the page can then display the results based on those values.

Im looking to do this too. Is there something that can do it out of the box, or where can I find more information on how to do this. I would love to use gravity forms to make a nice one

Would it be possible to have Gravity Forms call a View (using the View plugin from OnTheGoSystems) with arguments?
Example below of how to call the view with argument:
