I would actually suggest booting to an external hard disk drive, I've only had problems using Live USBs. Otherwise yes, it is possible.

If you want to put it on a flash drive I suggest using Universal Usb Installer
I have had problems on a few computers getting them to boot to a flash drive. So if it dosent work then you could use an external drive like hellow533 said or you can burn the iso to a blank CD/DVD and boot from it. Most linux distros have gotten to be too big to fit on a cd, so for most distro's, like ubuntu, you would need a dvd.
Since you are knew to Linux I would suggest Ubuntu or Mint over Kali.

Thank you very much.

Edit : im new at this so i have to instal ubuntu 12.04.3-desktop , and from there is start to learn right ? or i need language like python with it?

once you install ubuntu, you'll likely already have python, but if you don't, getting it is as simple as "sudo apt-get install python".

Not at all, but you never need a reason to learn something. Knowledge is an end in and of itself.

I recommend you learn how to install an OS first.
