The answer is that it may be possible, but unlikely. Many manufacturers use
Ghost to create their recovery discs and password protect the content. The
only way to access that content would be to install the recovery which is
not something you would want to do. In order to install Works, you need the
install files and unless you can access them from this disc you are not
going to be able to install that version of Works.
You could buy a new copy of Works from eBay - a quick check shows there's
one currently on sale - 7104765835 - for £4.99!.
