Theoretically, yes. I have not tried, but from what I understand, you can package any Win32
apps provided they don't require any special, administrative
permissions. And Kivy fits that description. Not sure if anyone has actually done it, but I can't see why not....

You can create an executable app for Windows, but not a Windows Store App

Using app-x, you can apparently package win32 apps.

Quite right, they are not the same. The 'Windows Store apps' are any apps on the store, and Win32 apps are classic Win32 API based apps.
It seems the Windows Store can host both. It's just a store. Like a supermarket, you can store vegetables or meat. Or both. It's just a place that stores apps. What those apps are is up the the packager....
Disclaimer: I've never used it, but I saw the Windows announcement and a quick google seems to make it pretty clear you can package standard Win32 apps for the store.

I may well be wrong, but then please point me to something that tells me otherwise :-)
