Well... The medium is not really important as long as your BIOS (or whatever is responsible at booting to read the first device) read from your CD-Rom at startup. Considering this, burning the exact same content than a normal boot-disk on a CD should give you what you want.

The hard part is being able to get access to those files. If your floppy drive don't work anymore then you of course cannot retrieve them from the floppy boot disk. Normally it would be a simple matter of reformatting a floppy using the /s tag but I'm not sure you can actually do that in XP...
