It is an interesting idea but I have not tried. The first challenge that comes to mind is building the Motif library, that has never been easy even on Linux. Then you need X11 libs, also not easy, then an X Server which should be the easiest part.

Dear XEphem enthusiasts,
Is it possible (and hopefully, not too difficult) to install and run XEphem in the Windows Subsystem for Linux? Have you ever heard of someone trying this?
