You can install any Linux distro.

However, it isn't an easy install process. It does require some additional work/confg

 

Microsoft has a full documentation here:

https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/wsl/build-custom-distro

 

 

For Manjaro, being a popular Linux distro, you can find guides online and unofficial releases.

However, if you want to stick to ones available from the Store app, a close match would be this unofficial release of Arch Linux, called: Arch WSL
