Maybe. Check out Android Subsystem for Windows. It's essentially an Android VM though you don't have a launcher/home screen. You just see the apps in your task bar like any windows app. I run it on an older laptop, it's a touch slow but works well enough.

Windows is as much of a spyware as an average smartphone though, so not much of a point.

Edit: I should try it in Waydroid then.

Lol, true. I just assume most people are using it.

I'm working on getting away from it, been stuck on fining a OneNote replacement.
