can I format and install el capitan on a cover attached to the eternal road

My MACBOOK pro is having hard drive problems. It is partitioned to run el capitan and windows 7. the partition main mac only get 75 to 80% through the start-up procedure and then hang up.
I tried to run disk security recovery volume. zap the PRAM, tried to secure boot and FSCK nothing helps.
I ordered a new SSD drive and need to get el capitan on the new drive.
can I format and install el capitan on the new drive if it is attached to the macbook with a hard drive by using the 10.11.1 housing recovery tools before starting the installation in my macbook.

Another option is to see if the local genius bar formats an installer usb for me.

thoughts?

Thank you

Yes, you should be able to select a destination drive during installation. Is that what you mean?
