That's exactly what SST does. It's based on EDD, I think. You copy a disk and "pack" it onto 2 initialised (i.e. wiped) floppy sides. Then you use ADT to send those to a PC, and run SST inside an emulator to "unpack" the .DSKs into a .NIB image. The only catches are that you have to know which tracks to copy, and possibly modify the .NIB to work in an emulator.
Another catch is that this isn't reversible -- i.e. you can't run SST in an emulator on a .NIB image and then expect to produce a working disk on a real Apple, because the NIB image stores no information about sync bytes, track starts and track lengths.
Also, the SST-to-NIB step on the PC side can be done much more easily with a recent version of CiderPress, IIRC.
