No, updates that have been downloaded via automatic updates cannot be saved.

You'll have to redown them. For the future, you can manually download updates and save
them for later use.

In the meantime, for the updates you want now:-

Download individual updates from the Catalog and save to be installed later.

Click Add button for each update you want to download. Once you have what you want, Click
the "Go To Download Basket" link. Type in or browse to the location where you want the
updates saved to and then Click the "Download Now" button.
Once downloaded, you can then burn them to CD.

How to download updates and drivers from the Windows Update Catalog or from the Microsoft
Update Catalog
