How to rewrite with as where recursion is used?

Question

SQL

there is such a code

WITH ParentDocs AS
(
SELECT doc.DocId, doc.ParentDocGUID, doc.doc_guid, doc.db_id, 0 AS doc_level, doc.DocId
  FROM TV_DocsTableInternet doc
 UNION ALL
SELECT e.DocId, e.ParentDocGUID, e.DocGUID, e.db_id, doc_level + 1, d.Cheque_docid as Cheque_docid
  FROM TV_DCT_Docs e
  JOIN ParentDocs d
    ON e.db_id = d.db_id 
   AND e.doc_guid = d.parent_doc_guid
   AND e.doc_guid <> d.doc_guid
)

In the environment I'm in, with doesn't support recursion.
Is there any other way in SQL to rewrite this with construct to get the ParentDocs that was assembled according to the same logic as in the with construct above? How can I do that? Thank you!
