No, it probably won't work. You really need LaTeX to run texinfo.

You don't have to install full TeX Live. Just install the basic scheme
(plain TeX) + "latexrecommended" collection. On one of my machines
that fits into 110 MB, but you could probably be even more picky and
install even less packages (or remove them later after installation).
Just start with tlpretest 2014, else your installation will become
obsolete before you know.
