Does anyone know if/how you can run programs for Linux (or it's clones) on Windows (XP preferably)?

What I mean is, I'm curious if there's a program that works like WINE or WinBlows (it emulates programs that runs on Windows so that they can run on Linux), but in reverse (emulates Linux programs so that it can run on Windows).

I know the term isn't emulate, but it's the closest I can think of on explaining it.
