Yes.

I would like to suggest that you shoud first try to modify the
db2mysql to write the result to a tab separated text file and then use
LOAD DATA to read the file into MySQL.
JR> I there any documentation on building MySQL on Win32?
If you are using Microsoft VC++, then you just have to download the
MySQL windows source and use the project files included with it to
compile MySQL.
