We want to be able to allow a user to delete an executable (during a re-install) but not execute it (forces them to use a less privilaged account for day to day operations). Is this possible using standard Windows file permissions?

Yes. You need to use the advanced permission editor (by clicking "advanced" in the standard permission window) and grant your user only the "delete" permission.
