Yes. Rip it as an ISO.

This can be done with a Dumper like SuperDump or CleanRip.

I can recommend CleanRip Wink

I also agree that cleanrip is a good choice. Just to be really helpful I'll give you a link to the wiibrew page for it here.

Finally, i've still a little advice for ya.

If your usb device, which you're using for dumping, is formatted in FAT32, pls format it first in NTFS format.

Why? So you can rip your game directly into *.iso format. (FAT32 doesn't support this.)

On that subject, for me cleanrip has never mounted a NTFS volume successfully (hard drive, pendrive or cardreader), so I use an 8GB SD card. I've not found much support for cleanrip, so is there something that I should be doing that I'm not (anything not in the on screen instructions, however obvious)?
