No. Windows 95 and 98 are tied to MS-DOS, which is closely tied to both x86 processors and instruction sets, and the BIOS found in most PCs. Windows 95/98 were never ported to another processor, since doing so would necessitate a rewrite of the lower-level components, and would miss the entire point of Windows 9x, backwards-compatibility with legacy apps, altogether.
Window NT runs directly on RISC processors such as the the PowerPC, the DEC Alpha, and the MIPS R4000.
Windows CE also runs directly on RISC processors such as the MIPS, ARM, and Hitachi SuperH processors.
Any version of Windows intended to run on an x86 processor could run inside an emulator such as Bochs, DOSBox, RealPC, Transformer for the Amiga, or some other x86 emulator.
