Silverlight has an Out of Browser feature, where the user can right-click an app and choose to install it on their desktop. Other than that You can use WPF for desktop apps, which is pretty similar to Silverlight (or should I sat Silverlight is similar to WPF). Theres a few differences but most of the skills are transferrable.
At my work we are making 2 versions of our app, Silverlight 4 and WPF and I find the biggest differences are in theming but Blend makes it easy to cope with. Most of the code is shared through linking.
