Its just no longer Boot Camp today, but easily done by running within a VM; ARM64 Windows 11 is presently at version 24H2: same as x86 Win11.

 Compatibility on 11 is poor.  Some things run okay, other things like enterprise storage management software has fractured windows that operate but can't display anything.  The software works fine on 10,8,7. It has another three years before it's EOS/EOL so equipment owners must maintain Windows 10 VMs to manage their investments unless an OEM provides updates.

Sure, because all software developers have their own priority list, even if customers' workflows are hindered by it.
Fortunately, in a big enterprise setup where there's big corporate storage management, if an employee's duties requires both MacOS and WinOS, the business solution is to simply buy them the hardware of one of each & not worry about one PC trying to do both via a VM.  BTDT.
