I think you'd be getting down to the do-it-because-you-can level rather than a practical reason, as it would be compromising the ease and simplicity of the Chromebook for tasks which would be more quickly and easily served by having a second device (or just having a Windows device and running Chrome on it....)
Having an easy, officially-supported ChromeOS Windows VM is not likely to happen.
That all being said, I run Linux on my Chromebook, and in Linux I can run VM software and run Windows in that. I did in fact run an XP vm on it when I first got it. It was not exactly a snappy performer, and I deleted it before getting as far as trying Overdrive or any DRM-related activities.
