Of course :).  Download the following files from debian/stable/disks-i386:
root.bin
drv1440.bin
rsc1440.bin
base1_3.tgz
linux

you also need loadlin boot loader from debian/tools directory

Put them all in the same directory on your dos partition, and type in DOS 
prompt:
loadlin linux root=/dev/ram initrd=root.bin

and there you have it, a floppyless installation :).  Whenever the 
installation program asks you for base disks/modules/kernel floppies, point it 
to the dos partition where you have put the files you downloaded.
