No unless you modify the code. Most of Wine dynamically load libraries. So you can't statically link something that's not even dynamically linked.

Then there are are some libraries that can't be statically linked - like closed source libGL.

And don't forget that Wine loads lots of it's dlls for pretty much every program. So you'll run out or memory after loading just few dlls.
