We could do that.
I personally doubt it is worth the hassle, one has to find the correct set of 
non-GTK dependencies and keep them up2date across releases and MSYS2 updates.

So we would support the case where (power) Windows users can install a 
precompiled Geany from the installer with some dependency libraries, in an 
arbitary version, but without a GTK runtime environment. Those users would have 
to provide the GTK runtime themselves, and are to ensure this GTK runtime is 
compatible with the installer provided C runtime libraries and whatever else 
might be necessary.
To be honest, I doubt this is useful for anyone.

Since we have instructions in the wiki, it should be reasonable easy for such 
users to compile Geany from source completely using MSYS2.
