I don't know that anyone has ever actually tried doing so, but it should be possible. Here is basically what you would need to do:

1. Plug the hard drive you want to install Mac OS 8.6 on into your computer.

2. Download WinRawrite (link in Related links section) and make an "image" of the drive.

3. Download and install SheepShaver, a Mac emulator. You will need a copy of Mac OS 8.6 and a Mac ROM file. For legal reasons, i cannot give you a download link to these if you don't have them.

4. When setting up SheepShaver, use the image file you made of your hard drive as the hard disk image.

5. Install Mac OS 8.6 inside SheepShaver.

6. Close SheepShaver.

7. Use WinRawrite to write the image back to the hard drive.
