How should that work inside of a VM? The devices are virtual.
 
I just wanna try this case, because I am creating a simulation for measure of power usage.
is it possible I try inside vm ?

I don't think so. There is no power virtualization that would allow that. If you want to measure real power, I'd go with real devices (e.g. good servers with management board, off-the-shelf-hardware with a powermeter/kill-a-watt).
