Short answer: No.

Nobody seems to have been able to cross compile guile 2.0 for windows.
While searching forums and mailing lists for hints, I saw contributions
by Eli Zaretski on several occasions. So I contacted him. He has managed
to compile guile natively on windows with a 32-bit MinGW development 
environment. He uploaded the result to sourceforge:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/ezwinports/files/guile-2.0.11-2-w32-bin.zip/download

I tried to insert these files into the MXE cross compile environment. 
However, compile fails with errors. The error message looks more like c++ and 
less like guile. But what do I know. MXE is meant to produce static binaries,
but the download of Eli Zaretski contains *.DLLs . This may be also be a blocker.
