No, because the wizard reads the user's current Windows registry to gather the mail profile settings. Unless you have a registry backup that you want to risk your new machine by trying to restore it, those settings are no longer available.

What can I do if all I have is an external harddrive backup to work with? My
original laptop motherboard crashed and now I'm trying to rebuild on a new
computer. Is there any way I can use the Save My Settings Wizard without
having a source physical computer? Can I somehow use the same computer for
both the source (accessing my external harddrive backup) and the new location?

It's stored in the Windows registry. The Save My Settings Wizard that comes
with Office is a good tool for transfering mail profile settings and other
Office settings from one Windows profile to another.
