Running the server on DOS is pretty much out of the question. You will require a 32-bit environment and of course a TCP/IP stack. Running clients from DOS that connect to MySQL Server... theoretically possible, of course once again you'd need a TCP/IP stack. Linux, Mac and Windows are fine. Perhaps you can you elaborate on where in your project DOS needs to come into play?
