Yes, and no.


If you install Windoze software "from a Windoze machine" onto a samba 
share, then yes, you can mount that share, and run the application, and 
save to that disk space "from the windoze box". This is commonly done.

If you're asking if you can run the app from the LInux box, then no, you 
can't do that, without special software.
