I have a MacBook Pro with Mac OS X 10.6.8 on it.

In one of the folders there is Windows 7 and I would like to create a bootable Installation Disk Image out of this folder. Is it possible?

No, it's not possible and probably also not legal. You can download a legal executable image of Windows 7 from the Microsoft on line store. Here is the LINK to their store.
