The disk drives can do it no problem.

The IBM PC floppy controller, however, normally cannot: While it has a debug raw read operation, it only reads once it finds a triple sync word in the floppy; Amiga track format uses double sync words.

However, if there is another floppy drive, it is possible to start the read on the other drive, with a standard IBM PC formatted floppy in it, and then poke a register to switch to the drive with the Amiga floppy.
