2-node Hyper-V Cluster and AD chicken-and-egg

$

I have 2 hosts and a Storwize 3700 SAN and have hit the problem of needing AD to create the cluster when I actually want to run the DC on a guest in the cluster. It seems 2012 R2 supports booting up the cluster without the DC (so it could be on a guest once the cluster has been created.) So what is the solution to this chicken and egg problem? Can I create a Hyper-V guest on one of the hosts, install AD role, join both hosts to it, create the cluster, then move the DC guest into the cluster?
