Yes, in principle. PerlQt has been ported to windows, and it is a sister
project of QtRuby, using the same language independent autogenerated
'Smoke' library and a very similar runtime:

But Qt is only Free Software on non-Windows platforms, so you would really
need a commercially licensed version of Qt for this. PyQt has a dual
license - you can either use the GPL version, or buy a commercial license
in addition to a Qt commercial license. So that might be a possibility for
QtRuby in the future if the demand was there.

It's unlikely that KDE and the Korundum superset of QtRuby will run on
Windows anytime soon though, and logtails would need to be ported from
Korundum to QtRuby first.
