Default Recovery from 3rd Party Backup Software

I am thinking of getting either Ghost or Acronis True Image backup software
to image my C: drive to reduce down time if my hard disk crashes. I have been
told that I need to re-install my external backup drive as an internal
primary drive to get my computer to recover. In such an emergency, can't I
restart the system from just the external backup drive for the shortest down
time? Appreciate your advice.
