Yes, it is possible. If someone has taken, zipped and shared the firmware folder somewhere on the internet, you can download it and put the folder in its place manually, but you don't have to be worried about your internet connection during the update process, because this is the last stage where SEUS no longer needs an active internet connection.
The first stage is initialization with SEUS servers, second one is the firmware download and the third and last one is the update process.
And yes, XS++ works fine under Vista.
