All recent versions of OS X are too big to fit on a CD. Therefore, you can't boot from a CD.

If you mean "copy a file from a CD when it's inserted" like AutoRun on Windows, then that's not booting. There's also no way to do it on OS X.

Actually you can do auto-run on Mac OS X. But since its such a giant security hole its not really something you should do.
