Yes that is. You only have to indicate the path of the iso file
directly, no need to mount it. And in fact if anaconda doesn't find a
usable file you immediately get an error message (saying something
like "cannot find the indicated file", or "cannot install from this
file").
It seems your problem is different from that. Maybe a corrupt iso...
You may have checked this yet, sorry not to be able to help you more.
