Short answer: Not in the way you want it. You'll need the entire Wine to work as a "wrapper".

Long answer: There are lots of things required by most dlls. All those things is what makes Wine. You can't pull only one piece of it, because they are all connected. Just loading dll is easy. But making it work, and providing all the functions it might call - hard.
