Only if you somehow have the OS on a flash drive, which I'm guessing you don't...

Isn't the ISO on the disk though?

If the ISO is on a flash drive I believe you should be able to boot and install from that.

You can't just copy the ISO to a thumbdrive and expect it to work. Here's a link to instructions on how to do it. how-to-install-windows-from-usb-drive

You'll need a working machine to do it.
