This is exactly what we do. We restore the DASD containing the recovery
catalog. On that volume is a PDS containing our recovery jobs. One of
the jobs is:

<JCL>
//JS010    EXEC PGM=IDCAMS
//SYSPRINT DD   SYSOUT=*
//SYSIN DD *
 IMPORT CONNECT -
   OBJECTS (( -
     CATALOG.ICF.VHDCH01 -
      VOL(HDCH01) -
      DEVT(3390) -
      ))
 DEF ALIAS(NAME(BKUPHDC) RELATE(CATALOG.ICF.VHDCH01))
 DEF ALIAS(NAME(BKUPSYS) RELATE(CATALOG.ICF.VHDCH01))
/*
</JCL>
