I have a disc external hard cloned with Windows XP - can I use it in a dual boot with Windows 7 if both are 32-bit

I wish I could plug cloned this external USB hard drive with XP on it and use it with the computer that has Windows 7 installed on it.  Now Windows 7 is need to be installed on the computer and I have a choice of 32-bit or 64-bit when I re-install.   It helps to use 32-bit on WIndows 7?

Can someone give me pointers on how to accomplish this arrangement dualboot?

No, Windows XP must be installed on a locally attached drive (internal). You won't be able to boot from it on an external hard drive.
