Can you create a disk image pertaining to a separate partition that is larger than the one you are currently using to create it?
No. A disk image copies a partition's contents, bit-for-bit, to the partition you are using, so if you are using a 40GB partition and are making a disk image of a separate 200GB partition inside of it, you are going to run out of room before the copy is complete.To those who are viewing this question and have expertise in partition access/mounting, please improve this answer by providing a different method of accessing/sharing data between partitions.

What is a disc image burner?
The Disc Utility found in the Utilities folder within the Applications folder can burn a Disc Image (See links below).

What does mounting an image mean?
Most downloaded software for Mac is distributed using disk image (.dmg) files. When a .dmg downloads, it will 'mount,' meaning that it makes its content accessible via the Finder (the desktop) so that the user can either install or view the contents (just as if it were an actual disk). When the user is finished with the contents of the 'virtual disk,' it can then be 'ejected' and the .dmg file can be deleted. The same process occurs when an actual external drive (USB or Firewire HD, flash drive, or other media) is connected, although those devices actually mount, rather than virtually.
