This can be done, but it's generally pretty difficult. The first place to start is with catching the WM_NCPAINT (NC = non-client area, or the "frame" around a window). A quick search for "skin" in The Archive shows a few existing attempts at this. A DLL would not be required; your application could do this natively. Also, this only works on Windows.
