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 ?

You can use qemu or virtualbox or hyperv (if your windows version supports it). Qemu without any front-end is pretty hard to use for newbies, I would go with virtualbox.
