So far the RT kernel only works on actual hardware.

Emulators don’t have accurate timing, and so it hasn’t been interesting for us 
to make it work on them.  Of course for development, using an emulator would be 
useful, so it’s in our plan to add qemu support, but not a top priority at the 
moment.  Doing so would basically require adding an appropriate kernel driver 
for the timer provided by the emulator.
