If the right version of msvcrt.dll is on the target machine, there is no problem to do that. In fact I am almost sure that the msvcrt.dll version included on winXP is newer than the one that python and wxPython include.
On win98 the history is different, sometimes your are lucky and the system is up to date, but there are many chances you must update the dll.

Subject: Re: [wxPython-users] how to install in winxp without
administrator accesswell, i am just a simple cave man programmer. i dont understand all your
fancy 'installers' and 'msvcrt.dll' and administrator flags. but there is
one thing i do know.i can just copy the 'wxpython' directory from c:\python22\Lib\site-
packages\
on a machine where wxpython has been installed, and put that
into the c:\python22\Lib\site-packages directory onto the machine that
doesnt allow administrator login. and a lot of the demos seem to work ok.i have done this with win98se and also win2000
