You even dare asking this question only one day after non-x86 CPUs have officially been declared extinct!?
qemu is already able to run x86 Windows programs on non-x86 CPUs, with the Wine package that's distributed on the qemu website already. Not sure whether integrating qemu directly would help a lot... Hmm, probably yes, since the whole Win32 API part would be done natively, but there's still the whole x86 program part remaining for translation. Andreas Mohr
