Use Alcohol 120% to create Virtual Drive, Mount ur ISO on that drive & work using command prompt.

NO. u can't.

For bootin system, u need to exit out of ur operating sytem. And ur virtual drive... all work within the OS.

Of course, there r ways of making ur bootable iso integrated in a USB stick or so. Details somewhere else in this forum.
