If it's a Fat partition, why not ? If not, your Os support may  be 
probably not good enough (there is an issue with writing to
Ntfs partitions under Linux for example)

If you use a fake windows directory, you copy the dlls in the
system or system32 subdirectory. Then you use the loadorder
instructions in the config file in the ~/.wine directory
Example :

[DllOverrides]
"commctrl, comctl32" = "native, builtin"  

All this is explained in this fine manual, of course.
