My question is just the title.

I have an HTC mobile phone with windows mobile version 5 operating system.
you can not copy and run win32 exe files, you need to write programs for it using microsoft visual studio and target specifically that end device that supports a subset of microsoft .Net framework.
there are some tools that translate ruby to c# and there is also ruby add-on for visual studio, but -

Its not wise to choose the wrong tool for the job especially when targeting these kind of devices - what is it that you need to do ?

Short answer: Yes.

I have had a Ruby on my Qtek 2020i, Windows Mobile 2003 SE. But it wasn't stable.

I documented my attemps in German here: http://forum.ruby-portal.de/viewtopic.php?t=2669 At first, follow the links given in the thread (haven't tried them for working).
