I think that if someone really tried they could get some of it to run sure, but I would think that it would be missing chips that all for connectivity like BT.

I always wanted a nano watch, never got one so bought the real deal. Cool idea though dude

I saw that some people did run win 8 on iPod nano..

Windows is a completely different operating system - it's made to run on different hardware. It's a lot easier to tweak Windows to work on something completely different.

Apple products are made to work on one type of hardware, with no support for anything different. So it's a lot harder to tweak iOS or Watch OS.

Almost certainly, the answer is no.

It would be cool though. When I was using my iPod nano 6th gen last week I was on the Settings menu and reached for the non-existent Digital Crown. It made me realise that the Digital Crown is actually a pretty good input method for small screens - easy to navigate content without obscuring the screen, and you have much more precision.
