if you boot windows 12 would you need tianocore?
Need is a harsh word, but the simple answer to a simple question is yes, you do.
You can use SeaBIOS, but Windows does not officially support legacy BIOS since at least Windows 7, so whatever works today might stop working tomorrow.

It is possible through u-root support for multiboot images [1] to chainload grub?
Yes, I would think so. But in case we are still on topic: It won't help you to boot Windows (unless you also implement UEFI services in your LinuxBoot and use a UEFI GRUB).
To chainload something for Windows I would currently go either one of these ways:
coreboot -> LinuxBoot -> SeaBIOS -> Windows loader coreboot -> LinuxBoot -> tianocore -> Windows loaderI think SeaBIOS already has an option to build a multiboot image. In either case you could also (in theory) pack either into a bzImage and feed that to kexec.
