Gotek drive for install Workbench

Hi guys, I was thinking of getting a Gotek since my floppy disk drive has finally died, however I was wondering if I am able to use the Gotek to install Workbench on my hard disk, as in can I change or add disks when I have loaded a program with the Gotek or is it not possible? Cheers!

You can set the Gotek to boot from a Workbench (Install) Image
and view other Dos disks from that boot.
