You would face this issue even if you used the assembly from C#. Silverlight has a subset of the .NET framework, so like Curt said, it might be as simple as recompiling, or as hard as changing the code to not depend on missing APIs.

So, I would face this issue even if I did not use DLR and went with C#?

You'll almost certainly need to contact the vendor and ask them to provide support for Silverlight in order for it to be usable there. This may not require much more work than a simple rebuild, but if they've used any APIs that aren't supported under Silverlight (like .NET serialization or the original collection classes) then they'd need to modify the source code as well.
