You can have actual Xcompose by running an X server and using xterm or rxvt-unicode. For the console and mintty, you depend on Windows' native mechanisms, in particular, "dead keys". Different keyboard layouts can be chosen in the 'Region and Language' control panel. The standard US keyboard layout doesn't allow entering non-ASCII characters, but the "US International" keyboard layout does. See here for details: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Keyboard_layout#US-International. If none of the available layouts do what you need, there's also the possibility of creating your own using MS Keyboard Layout Creator.
