Given QNAP runs on linux (busy box) then it is not possible to host a Windows container through Container Station.

You could though host Windows in a Virtual Machine. Needs a lot of resources. Do not know if the host for the Windows VM will support nesting such that you can run Docker in Windows and offer Windows containers. I doubt it very much.
