Whilst you'll be missing features like shadow copy and I'm not sure if permissions will be preserved it looks like the Proxmox backup client can run in a WSL2 environment and furthermore it appears at least that providing the Linux user can read them it can backup files from the windows side as a side effect of the windows drives being shared to the WSL container via /mnt/<drive letter>

Wouldn't trust it for anything mission critical but might be handy if you want an extra backup of your workstation
