You can:

- write that ISO to the stick and use it as an installer

OR 

- boot that ISO and select a stick like that as the target disk

but not both at once.

16GB is enough room for a fair number of things; I have a
desktop PC here with lots of installed software where everytning
which is not /home fits in 16GB.

It will be fairly slow. A USB3 stick, if available, should be
faster, and a USB3-connected SSD quite usable in the short term.
