No idea, but if not, then it starts dosx.exe directly, which is very likely.
No win.com, dosx.exe, or win386.exe exists after the first stage of
 installation in dosemu.  I just verified this.
And I just verified that replacing dosx.ex_
with os2k386.ex_ makes the install to go as
far as a graphical screen, under dosemu, just
as I expected. I have to interrupt it at that
stage - no time for experiments now. Probably
at a week-end.

Look at the function at 014:11f7 in setup.exe. It pushes the string "winexec" and "krnl386.exe" among other things
What's the use? I just tried what I suggested,
and it seems to work (at a first glance at
least). Trying something before assuming that
it doesn't work, can sometimes save some work:)

BTW, WFW only runs in enhanced mode, correct?
Via win.com at least - yes. That's why I still
think replacing dosx.exe with os2k386.exe is OK,
while replacing the win386.exe is not - it will
always force the winos2 mode, which is not good.

Why would it need dosx.exe in that case ?
It can be started directly.

Does dosx.exe starting WFW cause it to run in enhanced mode anyway?
I don't think so, but might be trivial to figure.
Just look into "Help->About" in a Program
Manager to find out.
