Like the above it is possible, just setup an IP address and subnet that they can talk to each other and should be able to access locally. Like a modem/router without internet..
Create a VHD, copy the files to the VHD, attach the VHD to the VM.
Here's one more method that's similar to Lee's:

Copy the files to a folder on the host, use an ISO creator utility (there are plenty of free ones out there) to create an ISO image from that folder, then point the VM's DVD drive to that ISO. In the VM, open the DVD drive and copy the files to wherever you want them.
