There is and probably won't be a live-CD Version of ubuntu studio, but
I would guess that the ubuntu studio dvd could be booted from a
usb-stick in the same way.
I've never done that, but there are probably lots of guides around.

Installing normal ubuntu and adding the studio stuff would probably work
as well, I don't know if there are any differences besides the
additional packages that you will get with a default ubuntu install.
