We have bought windows server 2008 with hyper-V MOLP-licence and installation
DVD. There is inscription "W/O Hyper-V" on DVD and DVD is dated may 2008.
During installation we were able to choose only version of windows server
without hyper-V . Now there isn't "Hyper-V" item to add as a role at server
manager . How can we install Hyper-V?

You need to contact Microsoft. You've got the wrong install DVD. The DVD
you have contains the version of Server 2008 With Out Hyper-V, that's that
the "W/O Hyper-V" means.

Ok, now We know that our DVD is without "Hyper-V" but ist there any way to
install "Hyper-V" apart from appropriate DVD.

No, you're going to have reinstall with the correct install media.
