Don't! Use this as the last resort to get something working. Wine is not meant to be run with native dlls. Some undocumented features these dlls depend on are absent from Wine.

Also note that lots of Wine dlls can not be replaced with native. That includes most of D3D. You can only use some helper dlls like d3dx9_??.dll from windows. But not core dlls like d3d9.dll.
