Will GRUB LEGACY be able to run WINFOWS 10 with a UEFI bootloader if there is no UEFI mode in the BIOS?

There is an SSD drive from a PC that failed with the WINDOWS 10 operating system, it was launched via UEFI. You need to make sure that the operating system from this SSD starts on another PC that does not have a UEFI boot mode. I remembered the way to install Linux Mint, when you can install it next to WINDOWS, and before starting, choose which OS will be loaded. Can GRUB LEGACY run WINDOWS UEFI? At the same time, the PC from which I will start will not have UEFI mode.

The UEFI bootloader uses the EFI environment and needs Boot Services. GRUB doesn't imitate them, so it won't work that way.
You need something like Chameleon, but it's for Macs .. It's
easier to fix a PC or replace the Windows bootloader with another one
. For example, here they change the disk layout from GPT to MBR via EaseUS, after which Windows starts in Legacy mode.
