You can enter the value in centimeters in the Borders dialog -- for example,
type in 0.5cm -- and Word will automatically convert it to the corresponding
measurement in points.

To go the other way... Word can't. You'll have to use a calculator (one happens
to be part of Windows) to multiply the measurement in points by the conversion
factor 0.0352778 (which is 2.54 cm/inch divided by 72 points/inch).
