You can save a Docker image as a tar file in a computer with docker (you always need docker to use a registry. ie dockerhub). save it like this:

docker save -o <path to generated tar file> <image name>:<image tag>

then copy the files using cp or scp

or you could use something like moby project explained in this question before
