If the compiler in the cpp builder is mingw then you can easily make one.
If it is not then you have to know what you're doing to do it and then it is not guaranteed that you'll succeed.

I don't think so. Also keep in mind that GCC doesn't support the native debugger symbols format. So even if you can create a .lib file you won't be able to debug it in C++ builder.

Another option is to setup the C++ builder compiler in Codeblocks.
