It might be possible to create/use some app compatibility shims:

Given that Windows 11 isn't that different from Windows 10, I assume the app compatibility toolkit can be coaxed to work.

Or, more excitingly, probably more versatile in the longer term, and a pile of hacks upon hacks, it might be possible to run in the browser with the likes of jslinux + wine.

eg. https://github.com/lrusso/WinAppRunner or https://github.com/DustinBrett/daedalOS

If you get that working, that'd be really exciting.
