Can an Amiga 1200..

Yes.

If by "PCMCIA Mini Hard Drive" you mean "4MB PCMCIA SRAM card formatted as disk".

You need the compactflash.device from the cfd.lha package to use modern drives and I don't believe it can be made resident (read: it's not bootable).

Since I don't have a floppy drive installed yet, will it be possible to mount an 2.5 IDE HDD under Winuae and install the OS that way and then put it in the amiga?

That'll work.

True for PCMCIA stuff, but not an issue for internal drives :-)
