Can I covert an Xp installation from inside another OS

I am having a dual boot setup with both having  Windows XP. I have the 1st Win XP on C drive and the 2nd Win XP on the E drive. I want to create an virtual image of the physical 2nd Win XP on the E drive.

 

My questions is :

(1) Can I install and run the Vmware convertor from inside of the 1st windows xp on C drive and use it to create a physical to virtual image of the 2nd Win XP on the E drive and save it on a separate partition lets say D drive.  Thus I want to convert the XP install on E drive , while running the VMware converter from within the 1st Win XP installation.(This not being a Live cloning as I have booted into the other OS)

 

 

(2) Also while using the virtual Image created with the above method, can I use this Image while running the Vmware player from inside both the Windows xp installations on C drive and E drive. What I mean here is can I run the virtual Image of the E drive using either of the Xp installations on C and E drives.
