Haha no, it's technically not an emulator. Emulation means having a whole fake CPU that runs your software. Wine doesn't do that, instead it makes the windows exe run in Linux and provides an API so the calls your windows program makes run natively.
Tldr emulation is slow, wine makes your programs run natively.
I switched to Linux for gaming a year ago and I have been blown away by how good it is.
