From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Your best bet is a secondary M2 slot, there are some laptops that allow for that. You install windows on the first, main ssd. Then you DISABLE that ssd (or you unplug it intenrally), you install linux on the second ssd, and then you enable back the first one. Then you can select using F12 during boot which ssd you want to boot from, by default it'd be windows.
I see you're from Germany. Well, Tuxedo computers have many laptop models with two ssds in it.
