It is possible, but why dont you just use a regular live CD? The pendrive version of Fedora, for instance, uses the live CD image.

You could put grub on your usb drive's boot sector, and give it an option to boot either the distro you've got on your hard disk or the one on the pen drive. Then you leave the usb drive in and always boot off it.
