It’s not straightforward, but technically feasible. You could mount a Windows installation on a portable drive and use it as a bootable system on a Chromebook. It would require some setup and might depend on the device’s capabilities.

It's feasible, take a look at r/chultrabook. I'd suggest Linux as GalliumOS instead.

Yes, it's possible. I'm also using galliumOS on my Chromebox with dual boot. The MRChromeBox has plenty of resources for this setup.
