NTVDM exists and runs a stripped down version of MS-DOS 5. I think it even does have non-stripped versions of the relevant files available if the user decides to sys a floppy. But I've never heard of it being possible to run anything but there provided build of MS-DOS 5 in NTVDM. Maybe he ran the FreeDOS installer and managed to pull in components of FreeDOS, but unless he's using an emulator or VM, I agree that he certainly isn't running FreeDOS on top of XP.
