You can if you use the select startup disc option before rebooting. It will set the EFI default.

I know. I mean that's the only thing I really need to work from Bootcamp. All the other 7 Drivers can be sourced elsewhere.

Can anyone answer me this question - is it possibly to create a partition on my existing system to install MacOSX as a dual boot? Im not wanting to discuss warez or anything, I just want to know if its possible.

no. You cant create another partition over another, only if you had free space on the drive(un-partitioned space i mean)

Yes, it's possible to make a new partition using a non-destructive partitioning program like Acronis Disk Director. Making it work with OS X on a PC is a bit harder to do, however.
