I did that yesterday. I installed Qt Creator on a brand new computer without installing Qt. I had to install MinGW (mingw-get install mingw32-gcc-bin mingw32-make-bin) and configure that compiler in the "Build & Run" tab. Then I created a kit with no Qt versions. I had to create a Makefile to build the project but it works just fine. I don't have a step by step procedure as I had to poke around before it started working. If you need more information, let me know and I'll look them up the next time the computer is powered up.
