It's not possible without heavy modification of PearPC. I tried it many times. It's probably because PearPC emulates an Open Firmware machine, and Windows NT requires a PReP machine (as do AIX, OS/2 PPC and other early/IBM-only PowerPC operating systems). Macs don't run Windows NT for the exact same reason. You might have better luck with QEMU, as it has an experimental PReP/CHRP emulation engine.
