No, currently it is not.
There is an effort to port it to the borland tools (havent seen any 
action on it for ages) and I am currently doing a port to mingw 
(basicly, its a version of GCC that uses the microsoft msvcrt.dll as a 
runtime library)
See bugy 134113 for the mingw port and search for borland in bugzilla 
for the 2 bugs related to the borland port
If you want to help out on the mingw port, let me know.
