Absolutely not, best to use DOSBOX in Windows:

Writing a device driver is a complex task. It requires very detailed knowledge of the device, and since this information is rarely made public, usually only the hardware manufacturer will be able to do it. Due to the low and decreasing popularity of DOS systems, manufacturers have little incentive to write DOS drivers.
If you want audio in a real mode DOS system you will need a older audio card for which a DOS driver is available. A DOS driver wouldn’t be able to support all of the features of a modern card anyway.
