To exemplify, what do I need to do to make an unsuspecting individual believe that a comment is from the real "Dharma" (as visible in the image below), when it is actually by me? I only need to sign-up and create a Blogger account, and copy the name and photo of the real Dharma in the newly-created account's profile (and possibly copy other information from the real Dharma's profile).

In all probability, a reader (or the post's author) will not realize that the comment is by a masquerader, unless he/she makes the effort of clicking on the name and checking the profile (something I believe cannot practically be done for all the comments on all the posts). So, if I have a friend named X, who sometimes posts comments on my blog, it's possible for a Y to comment on a post, posing as X.
