I do not think its possible yet, atleast all islands i've made had atleast one side touching the end of the map (for dwarven trade i assume).
I think we atleast have to wait for when its possible to have boatlike transportations (and one-legged one-eyepatches one-hooked Pirates ofcourse) before being able to embark on small freestanding islands.

it's possible- you just have to draw the elevations...  Right?

Toady said what he did to get that was to make an entire map single tile islands with elevations around 80 for the ocean and 101 for the land.


And a continent in one corner to ensure enough civs.
