Windows is currently
not supported on M1 Macs, even through virtualization. Because Windows is X86, and the M1 is ARM, "virtualization" goes back to the old Virtual PC days where the entire X86 architecture must be virtualized, and Parallels does not do this (at least not on the Mac).
There have been rumblings that Windows for ARM could solve the problem, but Microsoft has not yet licensed it so it is a non-starter.
Basically, the answer is "no". At least not yet. If Microsoft is smart, Windows for ARM will be license-able (is that a word?) by the end of 2021.
