Yes.

Where did you see the word "most"?

The main Cygwin site page says this:

   The Cygwin DLL currently works with all recent, commercially released
   x86 32 bit and 64 bit versions of Windows, with the exception of Windows
   CE.

Granted, the FAQ is a bit out of date and instead lists more specific
versions.  Still, the spirit is the same.
