is it possible to copy xp updates from one computer to another?? is there some place where the updates are stored so that we can manually copy them??

No, but you can do two things....

You can download them separately, burn to a CD and then install them by clicking administrator options on the left side of WindowsUpdate page then choose update catalog,

or

you can download something like AutopatcherXP, which includes updates with a nifty installer package and some nifty goodies....only drawback is the updates are about a month old.
