WINE is not the end-all-be-all to run Windows programs.  WINE is a kludge. 
Now there is something similar to WINE for OS/2 called Odin though I have
never used it.  There's something else also, I think called "win32s", but I
have never explored either option and perhaps others in here would be better
suited to help you with this.

I admit that if it wasn't for the BBS, I'd not be dealing with OS/2 anymore. 
There's still too many limitations for me to use ArcaOS as my personal OS
even though I still love OS/2 in general.

Later,
Sean
