Yes, you can put all of the CDs into a directory on the HD and
use it as an installation. This is the infamous "HD install".
Here's a link that'll help:
http://www.redhat.com/docs/manuals/enterprise/RHEL-4 (See http://HEL-4.ora-code.com)-Manual/x8664-multi-install
-guide/s1-steps-hd-install.html
Note that the link refers to RHEL4, however it works for Fedora as
well. If all you have available is Windows, use the "rawrite" program
to create the .iso images from the CDs.
As an aside, note that RHEL4 is based on Fedora Core 3.
