I do not think it will work. You can try using a live Ubuntu drive if you're trying to recover files from a corrupted Windows installation. Or you could use your Windows installation media to try and repair it.

It can be done. Search for WinToUsb. Download that, follow the steps. Not sure why you want this though. Accessing Windows from a USB drive will be pretty slow.
