Maybe, if it includes Wine and / or Dosbox (or you install them).

Wine may integrate better, but Dosbox will show a entire Win 3.1 desktop. Note that (in most Linux distributions) installing Dosbox may "disable" Wine win16 compatibility (Wine will suggest running Windows 3.1 executables from Dosbox).

Those screenshots are great from a nostalgic point of view... but I wonder if how usable are that styles.

Well...I guess I know what I'm doing with some HDDs I have laying around. Might have to try this out.

I sometimes wonder about the number of distros that exist. Yes I accept it's the author's choice but mostly their effort remain unnoticed because the majority doesn't use them. If instead this was a shell for major Linux distros, it might perform even better.

How's the keyboard hotkeys/shortcuts/task managing/screen savering/auto mounting/drive paths/etc?

Just give it a try/test to find out yourself.

Cut and paste is probly the usual highlight the text with left button Move the mouse curser to another window with doc you are going to. Place the mouse curser to where you wont the copied text to go then click the right mouse button and whammo! you text is copied. Just as it was back in the UNIX olden dayz.
