I might be wrong, but here are my thoughts.
Versions you specified are 9i and 10g. What are these? Database? Forms?
Forms need to connect to a database. Clients don't have any, so you'll have to install the database. Which one? You could try to silently install it, but there are some prerequisites and your clients' computers might have certain problems with that. For example, unsupported combination of their operating system and Oracle database you'd want to install (such as any MS Windows Home edition + any Oracle). A database you could use is 10g Express Edition (which is rather small, when compared to its "big brother" database versions). That would be easier part.
Forms versions 9i onwards are web based and run in web browsers. There's no "client-server" version, so you can forget about an easy client installation, desktop shortcut and double-click which would run your application. You need an application server (Forms services) which is not easy to install and set up, and I don't think that you could do that silently.
Or, you could install Developer Suite so that clients would run OC4J instance and run forms that way.
Maybe you should set the whole thing up on your own server and let clients access it on the Internet. Though, I suppose that you'd have some licensing issues here that should be discussed with Oracle.
On the other hand, I might be very wrong and someone, who knows better, will be able to guide you. Hopefully, they'll let you know.
