So there's 2 things, I think.
Does your bios allow you to boot from SD card? If so, then you can boot from the SD card and so you can install software onto the SD card directly.
If you can't boot off of the SD card, then perhaps you can install all the software on the SD card and then install a boot manager on the main drive. In this way, you boot off the main drive, then let the boot manager deal with loading the software.
You might be disappointed by the performance of software running off an SD card, mind you.
