Possibly but I don’t think it’d work properly. At best, I might be able to install a fresh version of the OS onto a separate drive and then use Migration Assistant to bring everything from the data backup to that drive. I definitely wouldn’t try to install an OS directly onto the backup of the data drive. I din’t trust the installer to handle it properly. It’d be way too much of a risk of losing the data.
