No.
You require an individual key for each installation.
Also ... her "Acer" DVD is most likely encoded with OEM protection ... meaning that is designed to install only her her model or series of PC.

It is Illegal to run one copy on multiple computers. You can try, but it will ask for a valid Licsense Number.

Each copy of windows has a specific registration key, so you would have to get a different registration key to be able to do it, which is to say the least illegal. :)
