Is it possible to decompile win32 binaries in linux? If so, what
programs can be used?

Why, certainly. Using win32 myself, I've disassembled just about anything
ranging from Z80 to ARM7 binaries.
Disassembling is not restricted to the platform a program is intended to run
on (neither is assembly, by the way).
Win32 programs are intended to run on 80x86 machines; find a disassembler
which can handle these (ndisasm is a good start).
If you want to concentrate on 'real' Windows proggies, you might want to
find a recent Win Api reference somewhere. I believe Borland has a zipped
one in their free d/l section.
