The usual answer is NO.  The reason is that Windows installer files 
usually place things where they should be and make appropriate registry 
changes.  It is not just a simple "install Wine" and play complex 
programs. 

However, if the program does not make registry changes (and that is very 
rare these days) and is just a copy and paste install (even more rare) 
then you might be able to run the program from your BOOTCAMP installation.
