No you need to update the firmware in your 360 DVD drive with a moddified firmware to play backups Ixtreme v1.4 etc. Games can only be played from the 360 DVD Drive, I've read posts of a possibility to play games from the 360 Hard Drive in the new dashboard update in the future but that you'll still need the original game in the DVD Drive.

You need to do a bit of reading before comitting to flashing the firmware and be aware that it can ruine your box if you get it wrong, all that said its not too difficult, and if your not sure on certain things search the forum that failing ask a specific question but most thin gs have been covered. A major factor is what type of DVD drive you have the 360 comes with different drives fitted some more easier than others to flash the MS25 is the easiest, with the MS28 becoming allitle harder but there are ways to figure which one you have by opening up the xbox or by the drive tray design but take a look at "Textbooks" tutorial here : http://forums.afterdawn.com/thread_view.cfm/664581 its all covered in that

Yes once you have flashed the firmware you can play backups of your games.
