p2v Win7 desktop to Windows Virtual Desktop

Just wanted to run this idea past the community to see if it's possible. I'm with a customer that has old hardware running Win7 and various legacy apps that either can't run on Win10 or they've lost the media for. What I'm hoping is possible is that I can p2v this box into Windows Virtual Desktop and configure a new piece of hardware running Win10 to auto start WVD with the Win7 desktop. Is that achievable?

 

On a side note, my understanding is that if a Win7 machine is put into WVD that it will receive 3 extra years of extended support at no cost, is this accurate?
