I think that you're right -- the answer is most likely no.
When you install an MS Window app, it loads stuff into the registry. Your MS Windows install and your Wine install do not share registries -- each has its own.
So, when you're in Wine, you don't see the MS Windows registry; when you're in MS Windows, you don't see the Wine registry.
But, it's worth trying to see if it DOES work.
Ubuntu 20.04, Mint 19.10; MS Win10 Pro.
Will not respond to PM requests for support -- use the forums.
