I have written a technical paper in Mathematica and the publisher has requested
it be sent in MS Word! (yes, I am rolling my eyes as well). Is this
sort of thing even remotely possible?
Thanks,

Here's one of the google results that has a 30-day trial:

If you are using a version of mathematica that can Save or Export to (XHTML
or XML) with MathML. Then I would start there. A while back I think I
answered a post that was the converse of your question (Word to
Mathematica). My suggestion involved Using OpenOffice as the intemediary. I
think it is possible to go from Mathematica to Word. Where you would have
problems are with the MathML, Graphics, and Equation Numbering and
Footnotes. This is why I would stick to using open office
First OpenOffce is free. Download it if you don't have it already.
Save you Notebook as XHTML+MathML then open in OpenOffice Writer. If all
goes well then export it as a Microsoft Word doc.
There are many things I am over looking but this would be my approach.

The only problem I have encountered with this approach is that if you have
multiline equations they are not converted.
Good luck

Have you checked whether they'll not accept an Acrobat (.pdf) file with
good enough resolution (eg 1200 or 2400 dpi)?
Often they will. And it would look exactly the same.
