If I understand what you're asking, you can install a Windows-based X server on the Windows PC, then telnet to the Linux box and set your DISPLAY environment variable to tell the apps to display on your Windows box, then run X apps and they'll display on the Windows box. There are several X servers available for Windows, but if you're working on the cheap, search for MIX (or MiX, or something similar = "MicroImages X"); it's a freebie that's half-decent. If you want full-decent, you'll probably have to shell out a few bucks.
