No.
There is software available which can read Apple 5.25" disks on
a PC, but the PC floppy controller is incapable of writing a Apple
disk because it always writes in MFM mode.
Your best bet is to link your PC with your Apple //c using a serial
cable, and use software like ADT to transfer disk images to your
//c for writing to Apple disks.
Check the csa2 FAQ for more information.
