Usually, but it depends on how you installed Tomcat the first time.  If all you 
did was download then unzip or untar, then yes, just copy the installation 
directory tree.  (You may need to update server.xml or other configuration 
files if you put system-specific IP addresses, DNS names, ports, file names, 
etc., in there.)  If you installed Tomcat as a Windows service, or used a 
3rd-party repackaged version, then probably not.
