Yes, it's possible.
rename the file name in image dir, say, hda3.xxx -> hdb2.xxx
then when you restore, remember to choose "-k", which will NOT re-create
the partition table, and maybe "-r", and "-t". You just have to know
what you want or not.
Remember to backup the data in the target device! It's always worthy to
do that.
Good luck.
