Yes, it's possible. The changes are saved on a persistence file which needs to be created when making the diskimage. If you're making the flash-drive image from windows, I presume you're using Universal-USB-Installer, set the persistent file size according to your requirements.
Or if you're doing this from some linux distro, you're probably using Unetbootin. In that case, change the persistent space value as per your needs.
