You could theoretically build a unix subsystem layer on top of this but you would have to design and write it yourself.
However, it wouldn't in any way be a unix style OS, it would be an NT OS with a unix layer. It's an insane amount of work and doesn't make much sense when there's perfectly good unix kernels available. Following the NT method, the unix subsystem (posix) relies on the win32 subsystem for all its calls so you cannot exclude the win32 part. Ged.
