Not really. LinuxBIOS is pretty much for booting live hardware. What I think you wan't is the bochs project, VMware or Win4lin.
Well, if snooping is going to work the windows drivers has to talk to the hardware, which vmware & bochs doesn't support. I'm not saying that linuxbios could do it today but was merely asking if it was theoretically possible. Afaicu, when linuxbios (or any bios for that matter) has started the operating system it doesn't run anymore since it basic functions are fullfilled (hardware setup & loading of os). A virtualisation machine much like vmware or bochs, except that this machine would let the operating run on the hardware instead of emulating the hardware (am I making sense?).
