Yes, that is possible. DVCAM uses the same compression-technology as
mini-DV. DVCAM is only recorded differently on tape: with a wider track,
and the space between the tracks is further apart. This results in DVCAM
being a bit more robust when you have a bad tape.
You would indeed need borrow/rent a camcorder or deck which can record
DVCAM.
