Solution
Although you didn't provide make and model numbers, the answer is almost certainly not. You need a tuner to extract the signal from the antenna. I've never heard of a DVD player with a built-in tuner.

so I still will have to buy a 2 Coaxial cables
RCA A/V cable or a TV Antenna Converter to hook up throw my DVD player?
 
I have no idea. I suspect you'd need a powered external tuner, and I have no idea if these are even made. If such a thing exists, you could probably connect its output directly to the TV if the TV has a spare input. The external tuner would have to output a signal that corresponds to an available input on your TV.

Since we're talking spending money anyway, can you see if a shop can fix the TV? Might be cheaper, you never know.
