Yes you can use Group Policy Software Installation to deploy SP2 as per the
link below. Make sure that your computers have enough disk space or the
install will fail. I don't know the exact amount of free space needed but I
would imagine 1 gig would be fine for sure while less than 500 meg would be
questionable. The uninstall folder alone is over 300 meg on my computer. ---

Introduction
If you are managing computers in an Active Directory® directory service
environment, you can use the Software Installation and Maintenance feature
of Group Policy to deploy Microsoft® Windows® XP Service Pack 2 (SP2) on
target computers. This article describes how to use Windows Installer and
Group Policy to install SP2 on target computers in a Microsoft Windows 2000
Server or Microsoft Windows ServerT 2003 Active Directory domain.
Group Policy is the recommended method for actively managing the deployment
of Windows XP SP2 for customers who are not already using a corporate update
management solution such as Systems Management Server (SMS) 2003 or Software
Update Services (SUS).
