You need a cross-compiler.
They are resources index'd in the "Tools" catagory.

Yes, you can do it on Win7 (the Window cross-compilers are also listed).

It is easier to do (and get right) on Linux.

Yes, you can compile directly on the Kindle - but it is not very practical - the Kindle doesn't have build tools installed. Once you had gotten past that speed bump, you will wish you had just cross-compiled from Linux/x86 to Linux/arm.

There is also a special "C" code compiler that runs on the Kindle, checkout the GeekMaster guide to tinycc (tcc).
