I wish to switch over to Linux, but the only machine l have at my disposal is my brother's windows 10 laptop. Does QEMU help me create a virtual Linux system on this machine ?

Qemu is a terrible idea it would most likely be slow and hard to use. Try Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL) for a while, and see how you like it.
