What do you mean by execute a RPM file? RPM files are not
executable. If you mean open then yes. Just install rpm. If you
mean install, probably yes, but it wouldn't make sense. As you could
know this relates to the question is it possible to run Linux
binaries on Windows? The answer is no, of course.
