You can try, it will most probably work OK.
Please also note these installation notes from the ezwinports site:
If you install this anywhere but D:\usr, you will need to set 2
environment variables:
set GUILE_LOAD_PATH=x:\foo\share\guile\2.0
set GUILE_LOAD_COMPILED_PATH=x:\foo\lib\guile\2.0\ccache
where "x:\foo" is the directory from which you unzipped the GDB
binary zip file. These variables are required for the Guile support
in GDB to be able to initialize itself.
If GDB complains at startup about being unable to load Python
modules, you may need to set the PYTHONPATH environment variable to
point to your Python 2.6.6 installation, like this:
set PYTHONPATH=C:\Python26;C:\Python26\Lib;C:\Python26\;C:\Python26\DLLs;C:\Python26\Lib\lib-tk;C:\Python26\Lib\site-packages
(assuming you installed Python in C:\Python26).

The binary zip distribution of GDB 7.10 that you have includes all the
dependency DLLs, with the sole exception of Python. So once you
install Python, I don't expect any additional problems with missing
DLLs. (You can also download the latest GDB 7.11 from the same site.)
One more caveat: this GDB 7.10/7.11 can only debug 32-bit programs, so
you can only use it with the binaries that identify themselves as
i686-pc-mingw32, not x86_64-w64-mingw64. If the i686-pc-mingw32 one
is stripped, i.e. without debugging symbols, we will have to arrange
fore you to download a binary with symbols. (The .exe binary with
symbols is much larger, around 70MB.) But first, let's see if GDB
works there.
