The polymer does not require node or npm per se. We recommend using Bower (requires nodejs) to get the elements, since it handles dependency management.
Alternatively, you can use git to extract material. We have a pull -all.sh script that gets everything in one design: http://www.polymer-project.org/resources/tooling-strategy.html#git
Moving forward, we are working on solutions for providing .zip file collections of elements. Keep in touch!
