Yes you can do this. There are writable videodisc players (once write) made
by a few companies Panasonic had one several years ago, A company called the
Optical Disc Corporation makes a machine called the ODC610A and I think
Sony makes a machine to do this. I would suggest calling a few video production
houses, first finding out who has experince in video discs and then ask if
any one produces single copy "test" discs - It will probably be from this
sort of machine.  I found a place in the Washington D.C. area called
Henninger Video that can do it for about $300-500 depending on the type 
you want. They can be reached at 703-243 3444 (Arlington VA) I have not
used their services nor do I know if they are any good.   Hope this helps.
