IANAL. If you own the copyright then you can of course license it under GPL-3 with an exception to allow linking to the MSVC runtime. If you don't own the copyright, and you can't get permission from the copyright holder, then my guess would be no, unless you can successfully argue that the MSVC runtime *is* a system library (even though it's not distributed with Windows.)
