It should be possible.  You just have to download the sources of Linux
(the kernel, not GNU/Linux, the whole system), glibc and GCC, get the
headers of the kernel and glibc somewhere GCC can find them, and build
GCC as a cross compiler, then use it to build glibc.

I've never seen anyone do it on MS-Windows, and in fact I think it
would be a stupid thing to do, but it's certainly possible.
