Can I play Tetris on PC?

Yes. Kirpich runs natively on PC, using data from your own copy of the original game.

Is there a Tetris decompilation?

Yes: Tetris NES Disassembly, Tetris (Game Boy) Disassembly, Tetris (Game Boy) disassembly and Tengen NES Tetris Disassembly.

Is it legal?

These projects publish code only. Where a build needs game data, you supply it from a copy of Tetris you own; Recomp never links to game files.
