Yes, and this is primary reason that ANGLE exists, and is used to
implement WebGL on Windows by translating GL calls to Direct3D.

FWIW Java 2D ships OGL support on Windows (turned on by a flag) and

have occasionally dutifully run tests in that mode and regularly turn up
bugs that look like driver bugs. As a consequence FX decided to not
ship it.
So although FX builds OGL support on all platforms it is excluded from
the
windows product distribution.

Having done some GL work on windows I've to agree with Mike. Windows GL
drivers can be a disaster. If you are able to specify hardware for your
users it's fine but if you take a random win-machine you are most

trouble. So something like angle would probably be the safest way to get
EGL to work, especially as FX seems to use Direct3D on windows anyway.
And yes, doing it as Mike proposes one would get an EGL node on the
way to
webgl.
