Yes. You can find prebuilt Windows binary packages (just zip files) of
gtkhtml at http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/GNOME/binaries/win32/gtkhtml/3.18/
. However, gtkhtml 3.18 requires a fair amount of dependencies from
the GNOME stack. In fact, I think it requires most of what has been
ported to Windows of the GNOME stack for Evolution's purposes...
(including libbonobo, ORBit2, libgnome etc). Use your favourite dll
dumper (objdump -p for instance) to find what DLLs the gtkhtml DLL
requires, and make an educated guess what package they might be from,
and browse around that location to find win32 packages for those.
Sorry that there is no more automatic way... but there is no dpkg or
rpm -style package management.

Once you have the zip files, unzip them in some fresh empty location,
and preferrably then put your application's exe file in the same "bin"
folder were all the DLLs are, and then build an installer for your
application of everything you need from that tree. I.e., if your
application isn't localised, there is little need to package the
localisations for the libraries it uses to your end-users. Etc.
