how to download wine offline

I just installed Ubuntu on my desktop via a Youtube tutorial, they forgot to mention that Linux doesn't support Windows exe files. I cannot access the wired internet in my room, in order to download this file called 'wine'. I'm using the student centre wifi with my laptop, tried downloading the file, I just don't understand what needs to be done. Thanks
