Yes - if you can find a live CD which would have "development tools"
(actually, that's gcc and the necessary C header files and libraries).
We do have development tools on Owl live CDs, but so far we only have
live CDs for 32-bit x86. (We will likely have an ISO image for x86-64
soon.) Yet this may be a good start for you.
Of course, Owl 2.0 live CDs include pre-built JtR 1.7 (MMX with a
runtime fallback to plain x86 on ancient CPUs) - but there's nothing
which stops you from building a newer version of John while you're
booted off the CD. You can get this stuff here:
