In this case your only chance is:
Install from virtual tapes into a simh machine.
Use a virtual disk that matches your real one exactely.
Dump (dd(1)) the virtual disk to a file.
Boot NetBSD diskless on the VAX.
Dump the disk image from the simh machine to the real drive.
But instaling from real tape is much more fun. :-)
(I created the tapes by booting NetBSD on the VAX.)
You may have a look at http://www.tuhs.org/
There you will find the original 4.3BSD-Tahoe.
