It's.. Tricky.

While Windows 98SE does support WDM device drivers, it's not exactly the same.

Windows NT originally had no device manager and used static *.SYS drivers, while Windows 3.x/9x used *.DRV and *.386 (*.VXD) drivers.

To unify both platforms, WDM was born.
It made writing drivers for both platforms more convenient and more uniform.

However, the feature set between 98/98SE/Me and NT (2k/XP) were different, as far as I know.

Windows 98SE, for example, needs some helper files (*.VXDs) to load certain WDM drivers.
It also merely has a miniature NT kernal for NT/WDM compatibility (NTKERN.VXD).

That's why I said it's tricky. Not impossible, though.
Windows 98 is just very limited when it comes to certain device classes.
(Implementing USB 3.0 or exFAT seems impossible, for example, due to underlaying shortcomings of the system).

Devices that need no drivers at all in Mac OS 8.6+ or Windows XP, say USB floppy drives or USB pen drives or USB sound cards, require manual installation in 98.

That being said, I'm speaking under correction, of course.

Windows Me might be the best candidate, since it shares code with Windows 2000 and focused on WDM drivers.
- VXD drivers still could be loaded (incl. DRVs from Windows 3.1), but the amount of VXDs in Me was reduced to a minimum.
