Yes, In theory.

 

LTT actually did a video like that for Windows 10.

It would have to be super fast, and it still might not work..

It would probably work.

You would need to clone another drive onto it to keep your OS

You can but it's not a very good experience, it'll be easier just to make a VM of Windows XP.

You should look into using Linux instead. Ubuntu for example works nicely with old XP machines.
