Convert API to DLL

Can you convert API to DLL?
QUICK ANSWER
Is it possible to convert API to DLL?
No - not a direct conversion.

A Windows Acrobat .api already is a PE DLL - renaming to .dll changes nothing functional, and it still only works inside Acrobat via PlugInMain. There is no useful "conversion"; it is not a general-purpose DLL.

No direct path
