It is possible in a two step procedure - also possible to install into the same drive (but more convenient if you have two USB pendrives). https://askubuntu.com/questions/855039/can-ubuntu-be-installed-to-the-pendrive-it-was-booted-from , https://askubuntu.com/questions/854527/how-to-unmount-a-live-dvd-usb/854538#854538 . Finally clone the system for example with Clonezilla. – sudodus Jan 17 '17 at 18:34
