If the drive is large enough, yes. With iTunes closed move or copy the entire iTunes folder, then hold down option as you launch iTunes, keeping hold until asked to choose or create a library. Click Choose and then browse to the iTunes folder on the drive and open the iTunes Library.itl file inside it.
