You could first register a persistent image, then create a persistent VM, run it and do your installation/updates. Then run 'onevm shutdown <vm_id>'. Now you could create an other VM using the same registered image (makes probably not much sense), or copy the image away from your image folder, create a new template and register the copied image with a new name. Then create a new persistent VM which will use the new image.

Can I deploy the new VM using the save Image ..?

Probably as described above. But to "clone" a running image, the 'onevm saveas <vm_id> <disk_id> <image_name>' command and then 'onevm shutdown <vm_id>' (as in your link described the VM and the OS running in the VM needs to support ACPI) are probably easier to use and you do not need to manually copy around the image.
