I haven't tried that particular combination, but I've certainly had a
number of dual-boot (or tri-boot) systems that include Windows and
Linux. The key usually is to install the Windows system first, then add
the Linux system. All the Linux distros I've used know how to include
the existing Windows system as a menu option in their boot loaders,
whereas Windows will just tromp over and existing Linux installation
without making any accommodations for it.
