No, not if you want to use it through an exe in the miktex
bin-folder. The path to the scripts must be registered in
scripts.ini -- and this file is protected so you can't change it
manually, miktex must do it. 

But I just installed getmap in miktex and it worked fine. There is
an osmimage.exe in the miktex/bin folder and the path to the script
is registered in scripts.ini:

osmimage=scripts/getmap/osmimage.lua

You should perhaps check your path and other environment variables.
If you have both texsystem they could be some interference.

I also tried your example with TL14 but there getmap could not be
found. Isn't getmap yet part of TL? CTAN seems to be down currently.
So I can't check what's going on.


Btw: While your script works fine with your example address it
doesn't like mine: The city name (Mönchengladbach) doesn't work
correctly. 

utf8 + Mönchengladbach -> error when pdflatex tries to include the
graphics (pdflatex in miktex doesn't like Umlauts in graphic names).

ansinew + Mönchengladbach, or Moenchengladbach: no error but no
correct map either (only water and the text "solomon river").

The only thing that worked was to remove the city name and to use
only the Postleitzahl. I found not way to search for streetnames
with Umlauts.
