[https://github.com/casualsnek/cassowary](https://github.com/casualsnek/cassowary) maybe, never tried it. Looks like this one runs windows in a virtual machine.  
There was another solution based on Xen that ran both Linux and Windows in a virtual machine, and you could open windows like in Parallel, but I don’t remember the name and google isn’t helpful.

edit: these tools are not popular anyway, probably buggy, you’re better off, if you use a regular kvm virtual macine. I use windows in boxes daily, it’s not a big deal to copy files between them and switch between them.
