If msi is missing, you can use a variety of programs from exetomsi to Silent Install Builder.
Google is very simple.
Top 3 search queries examples:
https://www.exetomsi.com/
https://www.exemsi.com/

And also a very nice gpo tool without PowerShell:

I hope this helped you)

Not directly. Most applications now provide both .exe and .msi. I would see if you can get an MSI version of the application you are looking to deploy.
If not, you could use GPO that will execute a batch file and that match file could then install your exe application from a network share.
OR if you already have a start up script going, then you can add the installation of the .exe as part of the process..(mapping drives ...etc that may already be happening)
