I'm not sure if I ever ran into anyone doing this, so I have no idea if its possible.

You don't need 2 hard-disks to duel dual boot with Windows and Linux, having 1 larger hard drive should be fine. Windows usually creates some annoying problems with handling the boot up steps, so most of the time it takes some tweaking to get to the Linux installation. I recommend looking into duel booting with your specific distro, most popular distros have tons of documentation and helpers to install the distro along-side windows. 😄

it's dual booting not duel, no need to get combative :)
