loading xp on pendrive will be very slow as pendrive are slow as hell compare to hard drive, i would suggest u buy a new hard drive or move some of ur data to pendrive like movies, documents, pictures, ETC

You could use a large capacity external USB hard-drive on which to move across any files you want to keep. Then use Ccleaner http://www.filehippo.com/download_ccleaner/ to clear out clutter and then defrag the drive, which is still bootable with XP installed.

make sure your bios support boot from pen drive.

You can install and boot XP on it. But it will be slow. Installing programs on it like PS probably won't fit in the first place.
