Hi
Unfortunately no , any package that has
SUNW_PKG_ALLZONES=true  cannot be administered from a non global zone.

Interesting idea though, so you are trying to install SUNWcar to a 
"miniroot" dir from within a non global zone. unfortunately these 
packages cannot be pkgadd'ed to an alternate location even from a non 
global zone.

Enda
