Is it possible to establish a link between a project with .exe(built using GCC) and another .dll ( built using VC)?
The desired compile and build environment to link the two is GCC.

It really depends on what is in the dll.

In general, yes, that's absolutely possible, otherwise you wouldn't be able to build any windows program with gcc.
Specifically, watch out for binary compatabilities. To use qt styles or plugins, I think they need to be compiled with the same compiler as your main program.

Please do not double post questions. It only serves to fragment the answers. More in the other thread.

Please do not start two (or more) threads on the same topic, and you already get an answer...
