Yes. Using the HDD as a removable drive.

You'd need a 5,25'' bay IDE drive rack in the DOS machine and another either installed permamently in the XP machine (not recommended, though - you have to power down the entire PC to connect or disconnect the drive) or in a 5,25'' IDE drive enclosure for USB interface (which is a tad more expensive, but far more convenient).
