The only time it would help to do that would be if the .exe file was a self expanding Zip archive. And then only if the contents were even usable on a Mac.
.exe files are a Windows executable. A program in other words. Unless you're running Windows in an emulator such as Parallels or Virtual PC, they won't do you a bit of good.
If you could even find a program to decompile (reverse engineer) an .exe file and recompile for the Mac OS, it would be illegal to do so most of the time. Pretty much any commercial software forbids such action.
Also, quite a bit of .exe files you may download are installer programs for Windows. So it would produce yet more .dll, .exe and other Windows-centric files.
Jan 21, 2021 Winbottler is fine application software which is used to run exe files of Windows on Mac. It is easy and compatible to use. It converts the Windows commands in Mac commands, thus reducing the workload on the Mac system. Thus, with this, the wine exe mac file will function properly as it is supposed to be. Running EXE files on Mac is very possible but only through backdoor means, so to speak. You need an emulator (WINE is by far the most popular), or you install a virtual machine software on your macOS to enable you to load Windows VM or make an extra partition on your disk where you can simultaneously have both macOS and Windows in your Mac.

Any mac device that works in Bootcamp, you could probably extract drivers from the bootcamp package.
This is useful, for example, when you want to connect an Apple bluetooxth keyboard, magic mouse and ethernet adapter for that one guy in your company that uses Windows =(
The advantage is that these drivers are signed, will not be rejected by Windows 8 and they are official.
