Of course. I cross-compile everything, including the compilers that I
package and distribute, on a linux or solaris box. For info on how to 
build a Cygwin/Mingw cross-compilation environment, see:

  http://www.xraylith.wisc.edu/~khan/software/gnu-win32/

beware that you'll be running into the usual caveats of using cross 
compilers/tools, and only experience (and good fortune) will help in
debugging certain problems. CrossGCC FAQ http://www.objsw.com/ may be
of help as well.

Regards,
Mumit
