I believe this would be possible.   However I would recommend against it.  Your server
CD would be setup to create all the stuff necessary to server clients itself, this would
work, but you'd want to take the time to clean up the extra stuff.  Probably best if you
just download a new Desktop PPC CD and use that.  It may make for less headaches down
the road.
