Its just not possible. You could run Windows Phone 10 on the Shield K1 or even the cut down Windows 10 ARM version (Windows IoT) but neither would allow you to play Windows games.

 

Remember Tegra is ARM based, not X86.

Main Rig:-

Ryzen 7 3800X | Asus ROG Strix X570-F Gaming | 16GB Team Group Dark Pro 3600Mhz | Corsair MP600 1TB PCIe Gen 4 | Sapphire 5700 XT Pulse | Corsair H115i Platinum | WD Black 1TB | WD Green 4TB | EVGA SuperNOVA G3 650W | Asus TUF GT501 | Samsung C27HG70 1440p 144hz HDR FreeSync 2 | Ubuntu 20.04.2 LTS |

 

Server:-

Intel NUC running Server 2019 + Synology DSM218+ with 2 x 4TB Toshiba NAS Ready HDDs (RAID0)

No. @Master Disaster is correct. Those games are compiled for an x86 processor not an ARM processor. They would need to be recompiled for ARM.
