You can use Microsoft Virtual PC/Vmware/Bochs/Qemu/DosBox to emulate Windows 3.1 on Windows 2000.

DosBox can run Windows 3.1 but it is not ideal.

Qemu is good if you want something free and is far more supported for Windows 3.1 than DosBox.

Use Microsoft Virtual PC/Vmware if you want alot more speed than DosBox and Qemu

And if you look into the guide section you can find a guide on how to run Win 3.11 in Dosbox.
