It is possible, but definitely not recommended.  Following something
like this http://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Koha_3.2#Koha_3.2_on_Win32_w.2FStrawberry_Perl_Notes
might get you there in the end.

In a technical sense, it will perform a lot lot worse than on a
non-legacy OS like Linux. I'm sure you already know the ethical
arguments against it.

You are much better off running on Linux .. next best option is
running Linux in a virtual machine on a windows host.

Hope this helps
