Yes.

Search the Wiki and Forum for JRemote and WebGizmo, or just find the Remotes article in the Wiki.

As long as you can direct the audio output to your bluetooth speakers from within Windows, you will be able to stream audio to them. That is hardware and driver dependent, but shouldn't be a problem.

Not many Windows PCs come with Bluetooth. Of course the other option is to stream music from MC to JRemote, and then use Bluetooth from your iPad/iPhone. I do this all the time to stream Bt to my headphone DAC/Amp...

Most PC's have Bluetooth now. 

MC can play to a Bluetooth device if you have paired it in Windows and then select the BT device in MC's audio settings.

JRemote is magic I use it on an iPad mini and an android phone, I use it to stream to a Bluetooth speaker

Media Server is setup on main pc, connect JRemote to it, select Zone as This Device and you can play the media server to the iPad speakers. Now pair a Bluetooth speaker and voila

Hope this helps

If the Bt speaker(s) pair via the PC then speaker placement is fixed within the range of the PC. Pairing Bt with the iDevice allows greater freedom within wider range of the LAN, possibly only limited by the WAN...
