I assume you talk about installing a Windows guest OS. If you've got a real Windows install CD (and not one of those that reestablishes everything the way that the manufacturer wants it), then there should be no technical problem.
You'll need to activate the Windows guest, so if your serial number has no activations left, you'll have to call Microsoft and persuade them to do it. Some editions of Windows seem to have a license that forbids virtual use (though this restriction may not really be enforceable). But I think that this only applies to some versions of Vista, not XP.
