Is there a way to turn a .doc file into HTML?

Open the file in TextEdit and Save As using the HTML drop down choice
from File Format.

I actually find it easier to turn stuff into .doc from HTML

Good for you!  Most people do not realize how trivial it is to open
HTML documents in the word processor of their choice.

but this time I need to do the reverse.  Is this possible?

Most contemporary word processors offer an HTML export feature.
Personally, I have been profoundly disappointed with the HTML creation
facility of both TextEdit and Word.  Both products place great
emphasis on visual effects and almost none on the underlying document
structure.

TextEdit is not as awful as Word.  It at least produces semantically
valid HTML.  It insists on apply a class attribute to every paragraph.
The desired behavior would more simply define a default style sheet
and omit most class tags in the body texts.  If you have cause to
significantly edit the underlying HTML, you will have a great deal of
work ahead of you.
