Yes to both. Basically, use the same commands you would for building a C 
dll, but use the 'gdc' driver:

  dllwrap --output-lib=ddll.lib --driver-name=gdc --dllname=ddll obj1.o 
obj2.o...

For loading, just use the standard Windows APIs from std.c.windows.windows.

The documentation for writing DLL code in D is at 
http://www.digitalmars.com/d/dll.html.
