There are a couple of ways you could accomplish this. First, there is the NessusWX client (http://nessuswx.nessus.org/).
Its also feasible to use an XServer for Windows to connect to the unix server running nessusd. I personally like Cygwin (www.cygwin.com) which is a fully ported posix environment that runs under windows. It will run a fully ported XFree86 within Windows. I've done this to run an X session on my windows box and execute the nessus client remotely. Very nice!
