If so why? What's the point? It is a Windows file it won't work on Linux. It is like asking someone who only speaks French to suddenly speak Martian...
A lot of zipped files have executable code to unzip them tacked on, so the extension is .exe and they can be run directly in Windows to unzip them. However, Linux unzip can also read the zipped part (in theory) and extract them.
