Luck has nothing to do with it...
... and dollars (or pounds sterling...) to doughnuts you can't.

Anything up to Win7 will not run on ARM processors; and as the "beefiest" unit will only have 256Meg RAM, it's a pretty shaky conclusion that Win8 would be able to fit in that minimal amount of RAM - Win8 is generally designed around a much larger RAM footprint - and a much more capable ARM core.

Search for "Win8" or "Windows 8" for much discussion why Win8 (prolly) won't run on the RasPi.
