I doubt it. OpenSSH is not easily portable to Win32.

I would suggest looking into the free software tool OpenVPN at
http://openvpn.net/ and the Win32 tool OpenVPNGUI at
http://openvpn.se/ for a VPN software that works well on Win32.
OpenVPNGUI even distribute an installer with everything needed for
Win32.
