Is it possible to bind vm's to certain host serial consoles?

We would like to achieve the following, Install ProxMox onto some laptops, which also all will have an windows vm booted. Now we would like the users to be able to switch to the fullscreen windows vm by some keybinding like Ctrl-Alt-F2 or similar.

Or what would you see as similar functionality? Like After booting some key binding that opens a corresponding spice session in virtual-viewer in fullscreen mode.

Like Ctrl-Alt-F2 - opens session to booted Windows VM, Ctrl-Alt-F3 opens an other VM in Fullscreen, Ctrl-Alt-F7 opens back the locally booted debiansession in which proxmox was installed.

Does anyone have an idea on how this could be achieved? Or an idea on how similar setup could be setup, like some sort of small menu that lets one chose on which VM one want to switch?
