That closest you can probably get to that is with Powertoys FancyZones. Its not exactly a tiling windows manager but its close enough.

I think I've tried almost all the "tiling windows manager" tools for Windows there is. The best I've found, for me anyway, is PyleWm:

I use sway on Linux.

On Windows10 you get multiple desktops (all monitors are bound tho), and you can snap windows to left or right half of the screen (this is resizable), or alternatively to the four corners.

It's no i3, but it covers a lot of usecases when I'm not on my linux box.
