No. If you don't have the PST file, you don't have any data.

Note - you don't need to export anything. You can just copy/back up the
existing PST file(s) next time.

If the PST that was on the original disk is on the DVD, copy it back to the
hard drive, remove the read-only attribute and, in Outlook, click
FIle>Open>Personal Folders File, browse to the PST, select it, and click OK.
You'll now have access to the info it contains. If you want to make it the
delivery location and you're using OL 2000 in Internet Mode Only, select the
PST's name in the Folder List,. then click File>Properties and select the
option to make the PST the delivery location.
