    Correct.

    could we use live cd to copy & transfer. ( is there any OpenBSD live cd that available for download? )
    If the Windows system supports booting from USB, simply install OpenBSD to a USB flash drive, & boot from it. Note that images of live CD's are not officially supported by the project, however a member here, jggimi, makes such images available. See the "About Me" tab at the link above for further information.

    just want to copy/backup the file partitions "/home" or other relevant file partitions.
    To preserve permissions & ownership, look at dump(8) & restore(8). If permission & ownership information is not important, then cp(1) is an alternative.
