If you use a (cross-)compiler for ARM target processor, the generated 
binary will be indeed an ARM binary, of course (ready to run on an 
ARM under the selected target OS - WinCE in your case). If targetting 
WinCE OS, you can only use WinCE RTL and/or other units prepared for 
that target, so if the particular API isn't supported for WinCE (as 
opposed to other WinXX platforms), it simply won't compile.
