I just tried and it works great, just create a .bat file 
nmake-cmake-gui.bat with contents like this:

call "c:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0\VC\vcvarsall.bat" x86
"C:\Program Files\CMake 2.6\bin\cmake-gui.exe"


Then create a short cut to run that, and you can click on that .bat file 
to start a cmake-gui that will have the correct env.
