Hi, I'm going to format a HD with win NT4, can you install win 98 afterwards?

Yes, just dont use the NTFS file system when formatting.
Choose FAT instead.

Were you planning on dual booting NT and 98? If so you will need to install 98 before NT so NT can add it into the boot.ini... otherwise you would need to configure your own boot loader.
