Not sure why you would want to, because it makes your UI inconsistent with other applications in the OS - chances are users won't be happy. To help you convert the whole OS, there are 3rd party themes available on the internet. For Windows 7, there is one by deviantart. Or try Windows 8 Transformation pack, which supposedly can even work on XP.
If you want to style your particular app, there are 3rd party UI components you can use, but they are all paid (from what I know). Some vendors, for example, are Devexpress and Telerik.
