Probably not, since you said it was a shell script that you wanted to run. CFHTTP would require that you have a web server and CGI script on the Linux server. You could write a batch file on your Windows server to handle connecting via telnet or ssh to the Linux box, and running the script, and capturing the output from the script. You could then call that batch file from CFEXECUTE. Note that this will be complicated, probably, and may be difficult to debug.
