It doesn't use DX or DLLs, a port of it to Windows does.  But yes, if you have to ask it probably is impossible.

SpawnHyuuga:
Well I do know the regular version uses DirectX - but there is an SDL version too - which uses the CMD line. I tried downloading the dev version hoping to see source files but still got an exe. Maybe someone with more skill can handle this.

Not sure what you mean by regular version, but most of the targets VBA runs on don't have DX, so while it can use it on Windows, it definitely doesn't need it.  Regarding source code, you can find various forks of it on google:

http://sourceforge.net/projects/vbam/develop

I'll see if I can contribute ANYTHING... especially if it involves improving the quality of sound.
