WSLv1 can work in virtualized Windows. Consider it a compatibility layer like WINE in reverse. It translates Linux OS API calls to Windows OS calls, allowing you to run native Linux binaries on Windows OS.
WSL is a "Windows Feature" which requires elevated privileges to enable. IT department which manages your virtual desktop may decide whether to allow you to enable WSL or block it.
WSLv2 is entirely different case. It runs true Linux kernel in a Virtual Machine. As your desktop is perhaps already virtualized, running WSLv2 would require nested virtualization, which is neither stable or performant. I'd have not much hope for it.
