Yeah, anything can be copied from PC to memory card! Cant guarantee that you will be able to preview them on your camera though!

Why do you want to put them back onto card....

If its to take for printing, you can just burn to CD..

And welcome to the forums...

Ya its unusual that you want to refill the card! but make sure the card is formatted in FAT16. Your card reader / formatter should do this by default I imagine.
Small but significant changes in the firmware dont always allow them to preview again on camera. Why? Windows likes to change everything slightly to its own way of doing things. Thats why they are hated so much.
