Yes, but how do you plan to actually do it? Do you intend to write your own
installation program from scratch?  What makes a minimal installation
capable of performing a net install?

I do, but you don't seem interested. If you want to perform an

alternative boot option instead of with removable media, do a medialess
installation. There are instructions and examples in the installation
guide.
