Launching a game written in build 8086 on a modern processor

I wrote a game in the build for the 8086 processor and ran it on a DOS emulator called DOSBox.

Now I want to show the game to other people without having to download the emulator. Basically, I want to compile assembly 8086 with an executable file for modern operating systems. Is this possible, or should I convert it to another assembler language? If so, is there a way to do this conversion automatically?

The problem is not in the assembly language, but in the runtime.
