Yes.

Make sure the partition or HD has the OS 9 drivers on it. If you  
install the NetBoot version onto a separate partition or HD it should  
boot. If you install it onto the same partition as you have your  
Tiger, it MAY? boot, but on some Macs there is a requirement that the  
OS 9 MUST be installed PRIOR to OS X, and in this case, that'd be  
impossible. Also, you MAY? be able to run the firmware updater from  
Classic, but on the other hand you might need to be booted in OS 9,  
which would always be the preferred method. Also, the updater may give  
a warning in 9.2.2 but you can ignore any warning, it should run in  
9.2.2 the same as 9.1.
