surely.

If you have Grub already on disk0, you should be able to try it
out with entering the Grub command line (hit c if you are in the 
menu), then try (but this might depend on how Windows was installed)
either:

chainloader (hd2)+1

or:

map (hd0) (hd2)
map (hd2) (hd0)

chainloader (hd2)+1

or try some other combination ...

If you have found the right commands, find your menu.lst and add
that as a new menu topic.
