3. Yes and no
However, it'll take a little bit of effort.

First, check out Captive NTFS which will allow you to both read and write to your Windows NTFS partition.
http://www.jankratochvil.net/project/captive/

I think Unreal T2K4 expects its assets to be installed in the same directory path underneath its binaries. What I was thinking though is since captive NTFS makes your NTFS partition appear as a regular old linux volume you could create a symlink to Unreal T2K4 from your linux partition to the Unreal T2K4 directory on the NTFS partition. Then try installing Unreal T2K4 into the symlinked linux directory, which would install it on top of the Windows version. I would assume that the Windows and linux binaries would be named differently while all the assets would be in the same directories as they are on Windows.

I'd be interested if this works or not.
