Well, not really. As cajhin implicitly suggested: do not overcomplicate it. At first I tried I should use winetricks and I somehow tried to create a "Windows environment" (it probably isn't the right wording, but I am not very familiar with wine yet), but it really isn't needed.
Second time around I installed wine from Discover package manager (I use KDE Fedora) and then installed the Kindle Previewer by command line with "wine KindlePreviewerInstaller.exe"
I let it run and voilą!
Next time I ran Calibre (that also, installed with the command line provided in the website, and with a library imported from Windows that also imported plugins), KFX output worked like a charm.
