There's no easy or direct support for that, but take a look at how the
Android and iOS builds are working. And also take a look how static
plugins can be build/used in applications (you'll have to build all
GStreamer plugins statically).

It's definitely possible, I'm aware of some (non-public) setups that
are doing exactly that on Windows. But you'll have to do quite some
work yourself for figuring out the build system pieces.
