I didn't try it myself, but there is Debian minGW packages. E.g.

   https://packages.debian.org/sid/gnat-mingw-w64
 
This is 4.9. Install it and them copy files to the Windows machine.

It is most likely be incompatible with GNAT GPL binaries, but that should
not worry you if you don't want to mix them.

Regarding gprbuild, you really need it only if you mix much of C code with
Ada. Otherwise gnatmake would do. A few C sources could be compiled
manually gcc -c and then linked with using gnatmake.
