Norton Ghost and making a bootable HDD copy

I'm getting a new hard drive and want to be able to use it as a backup that I can boot from incase of failure. I'll have two discs backed up onto one large one. Is it feasable to have my boot drive copied onto this new disc so incase of failure I can just boot from that and then ghost it back onto the replacement disc to once again use that as my primary drive. Basically just keeping the two drives in sync with two partitions on the larger disc. Is that how that works with Norton Ghost? Or for a good backup system do I have to backup the data and then, incase of failure, reinstall the OS and then use the restore function?
thanks.
