Is there a possibility that a website’s source page can be captured and viewed using Wireshark ? I do not need the header packets, what I am looking for is the full source page of any site that I open while running the Wireshark.

Yes – in the list of packets, right-click and say “Follow TCP Stream”. For uncompressed content, that’s it.
If the content is gzipped, you need to save that output to a file, use a decent text editor (that won’t break binary content) to strip away the headers, then run gunzip to decompress it.
(If anyone knows of a way to make Wireshark do all that itself, I’m all ears!)
Edit: Just noticed the ‘chunked-encoding’ tag… that makes it harder. Editing away the chunk headers in the text editor should be possible, but tedious if there are a lot of them.
