I have NOT studied the issue -- but I think that the answer to your
question is a loud NO.  I understand that VirtualBox must be installed
under the host operating system -- and your notion of "installing" it to
no OS at all, just to a portable device which would be used on any host
OS you happen to come across -- simply does not "fit" this model.

I'm fairly sure you are right. For the virtualisation to work you have to have a host kernel module running to enable the virtualisation to happen. To do this you would have to restart windows.

Depending on where/what the host machines are - you might be able to run linux off the USB stick on reboot. So get the computers to boot from USB. If this is a viable option then I would say it is your best bet forward.
