Yes, enabling TPM on your second drive should work with Linux.

In theory, if it was turned off during the installation of Linux.

You can activate TPM. Secure boot, however, relies on your Linux distribution. For instance, Ubuntu supports secure boot by default, while Arch requires manual configuration—hence I skipped secure boot on my dual-boot setup. TPM functions properly in that case.

TPM enables without disrupting anything; it only offers secure key storage. Secure boot might block startup because it needs a signed bootloader.

If the roles were reversed, Linux could have used it for storing encryption keys, which would create an issue if disabled. The same scenario would occur on Windows when BitLocker was active with the TPM chip enabled.

Linux can run on a different drive as long as it has proper access and configuration.

It doesn't matter which Linux distribution is installed. Secure boot ensures the UEFI won't run an unapproved boot loader, which typically isn't allowed, so it won't start Linux. If Grub is used to boot both Windows and Linux, you'll encounter issues starting the system.

Solus might have problems, but I’m not sure Manjaro is affected too.

Ubuntu stands out as the sole exception, as they secured Microsoft to include their boot loaders.
