I'm on Windows 7, 64-bit. Can I run the Linux Fortran compiler for Intel with Cygwin?

While Cygwin provides a POSIX-compatible layer for source code and scripts, it does not provide an ELF loader nor does it implement the Linux ABI, therefore it cannot run Linux binaries.

no (because cygwin binaries are WINDOWS binaries).

but you can setup a virtual machine (with virtualbox.org), install linux in it and then run the fortran compiler.

Better (easier to install and configure) than cygwin is http://andlinux.org and you can get intel fortran compilers through andlinux.

Yes, GCC (including GFortran) supports Cygwin, see: http://gcc.gnu.org/install/specific.html#x-x-cygwin
