Is this possible to have os 9 on my external and have osx on my regular hard drive, would i have to partition my external to keep os 9 along with other files on there and how would i partition and install os 9
 
How to install? Just drag your OS9 System Folder (the one with Folder
in the name) and Applications OS9 folder to the external. Tell the Classic
prefpane where to look.
 
'How to install? ... Tell the Classic prefpane where to look.'? - one does not use a 'System Preferences' utility to install software.

'How to install? ... Just drag your OS9 System Folder (the one with Folder in the name) and Applications OS9 folder to the external.'? - most 'System' installer disc's 'System Folder's are brief in content; thus, no - do not just drag the disc's 'System Folder' to the external (FireWire, presumed) hard disk drive. Use the disc's 'Installer' application. The 'Installer' application will also install the 'Applications (Mac OS 9)' folder.
