Correct - PostgreSQL's makefiles are written for GNU make and a
unix-like shell (sh/bash/ash/dash etc). They will not work with NMake.
The Windows build infrastructure uses src/tools/msvc/build.pl as pointed
out by the link Andrew posted,
http://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/static/install-windows.html .
build.pl reads the GNU makefiles and produces MSBuild (Microsoft's nmake
replacement) files that it then runs to compile the sources with the
Visual Studio compilers.
I've never worked out how to build contrib modules externally with it,
though I haven't looked particularly hard. I find it effective to just
drop the contrib module I want to build into the contrib/ directory of
the source tree then use build.pl to compile the tree.
I'd really like to improve this situation - finding and documenting the
external module build method if one exists, and failing that
implementing it. As always, it's down to time and priorities.

As far as I know it's your best option right now.
I've tried to make it a bit more convenient with this code and
documentation:
