If you mean transferring the installation from a PC/laptop onto the netbook, that won't work. Office places files in numerous locations on a computer, some of which must remain in those locations to work, and makes many changes to the Windows Registry.

If you simply want to install Office onto a netbook that lacks a DVD drive, you should be able to copy the Office DVD's contents to a USB stick and install onto the netbook from the USB stick. Because the DVD probably has both the 32-bit and 64-bit versions of Office on it, you might need about 1.5GB of free space on the USB stick to do that.
