Some file like Modules/Platforms/Windows-cl.cmake could on the first run:
-get these env vars
-convert them to cmake vars
-call include_directories(<the converted INCLUDE>)
-call link_directories(<the converted LIBPATH>)
-call link_libraries(<the converted LIB>)

Would this or something in that direction work ?
