What kind of zone?  If it's a sparse zone, then the files are not independent.  
If it's a full-root zone, then you should be able to.

(But you'd need to wait for some other changes to the networking before you can 
run a DHCP server in a zone.  I don't think that's possible today).

You might scan the 'pkginfo' files for the packages.

Another thing is to read through the .clustertoc file in the Product directory. 
 Some  software is clustered, and packages are defined for that cluster.  You 
can't directly install a cluster, but you can see all the packages that make it 
up.
