I don't think you can.

MFC is a (somewhat) C++ wrapper to the Windows GUI API.

gtkmm is a C++ wrapper to the GTK+ API.

They are entirely different toolkits and I would guess that neither
would be able to display the others controls.  (An analogy to what you
are attempting would be for a gtk/gtkmm program displaying widgets
from Qt, which I don't think can happen).
