No, in general, you will just have to embed ftp commands in a shell script or just use ftp. --- rcp etc. doesn't work directly to Windows.

There are two workarounds:
1. install cygwin (free UNIX for windows) on the Windows box. You can then
ssh or telnet into the windows box, and then rcp and rsync will work that way.

2. Check out free software called samba. It will let windows directly open and read/write the UNIX disks.
samba exists for Windows cleint and Unix clients.

And vice versa. You can mount Windows shares as directories in a UNIX system with smbmount, then just copy the file into the directory.
