I don't know which GTK applications you're using, but the opposite
could be done easily, i.e. standard LilyPond installation, *but*
instead of using a GTK installation, you can use a portable version of
every other GTK application you need:
http://portableapps.com/apps/internet/pidgin_portable
http://portableapps.com/apps/graphics_pictures/gimp_portable
etc...

These applications come with their own bundled GTK, which shouldn't
cause any conflict with LilyPond. (you can use them exactly like the
versions you're already using; you don't have to put it on a USB key
or anything.)

I'm looking forward to see a portable windows version of LilyPond
too... I don't know if the PATH can be modified on the fly.

I'm afraid not. You can try, though.

Good luck :)
