No, you can't.  Linux uses a different object file format (ELF, whereas 
DJGPP uses COFF).  You can convert ELF to COFF if you have Binutils which 
support both formats, but even then an object file can require external 
functions and variables which don't exist on DJGPP.

In sum: don't do that, object files from different systems don't mix 
well.
