Yes. Yum stores the rpms and header in /var/cache/yum.
You could but that directory on a CD (or 2), thne copy the data to
another machine.
If you want to do it from a machine that isn't running
the beta, I'd grab the rpms from rawhide, put them on a CD, and then
make your own yum repository on the local machine.
