Is there any way to extract the matched strings by using Regex in T-SQL(SQL Server 2005)?

For example:

Welcome [CT Name="UserName" /], We hope that you will enjoy our services and your subscription will be expired on [CT Name="ExpiredDate" /].

I would like to extract the custom tokens in tabular format as follows:

[CT Name="UserName" /]
[CT Name="ExpiredDate" /]

Thanks for your suggestion!
