A: Not legally or safely. Microsoft does not support this. Any tool claiming to do this is a hack that violates the EULA and likely contains malware.

Security and Malware Risks Unofficial “portable” installers or cracked executables are frequently distributed through file-sharing sites, forums, or torrent networks. These sources are high-risk: files may be bundled with malware, trojans, keyloggers, or backdoors that can compromise personal data, credentials, and systems. Even if a download appears functional, it may include hidden components that phone home or grant attackers persistent access. Running unknown executables from USB drives or untrusted sites is one of the most common ways computers become infected.

: These files are often bundled with spyware, ransomware, or keyloggers because they require you to bypass standard installation and licensing protocols.

There is no scenario where downloading a "portable" repack of Office 2013 from a random forum ends well. At best, you waste 2 hours downloading a corrupted RAR file that crashes when you try to save a document. At worst, you hand over your bank account credentials to a hacker in Eastern Europe.
