No, it's not possible and please don't copy the Cygwin DLL into the
Windows folder. Just let it where it should be, in the <cygwin root>/
bin folder. You will avoid much trouble with your installation.

However, sometimes I'm wondering why people want to do this and
then I'm feeling forced to point to the licensing terms of Cygwin:
