Run any Linux application natively on Windows Sure except for anything that uses dbus, X, pam, framebuffer, sound, usb, /proc, CUPS etc. etc. POSIX is a useful standard but it's a porting tool not a no effort port. Services for Unix Applications (SUA) will reduce the time it takes to get something up and running but only the most generic of applications will compile out of the box.
