Anything is "possible". That doesn't mean practical.
Loading an entire OS from USB is going to be s.l.o.w. Running programs from USB also will be slow.
It's much better to just install Mint alongside Windows. Mint will defrag your Windows partition, add a Linux partition, and a boot menu. The defrag and repartitioning may take a while, depending upon how much space is available on your hard drive and how badly Windows has fragmented things.
Unlike Windows, the Linux installer is well designed and easy. Just boot from a DVD image, and click on the install icon.
