Luis Lavena did a series of patches in the latest code to allow FreeTDS to be compiled on Windows. We did this because I prepackage a static library for Ruby that includes FreeTDS for Windows as part of the TinyTDS project <https://github.com/rails-sqlserver/tiny_tds>.

So technically, your question would be does FreeTDS compile on Windows? The answer should be yes and then it is a matter of what do you do with it after that. The answer is whatever you want :) In my case, I wrote ruby C extensions to make a driver for Ruby. You or others should be able to do the same.
