I presently have a dual core Intel CPU running in 32 bit mode with Lenny. Dosemu works quite well on it. I think I should be able to run Windows 98 with WP 7 or higher in VBox. The VBox website says that VBox users have run Windows 98 on VBox successfully, but nobody on the VBox team has tried it. When I was still using Windows 98 (I have never used any Windows version later than 98 because I changed over to Linux instead of upgrading Windows.) I had no trouble with WP 7. It remains to be seen whether a later version of WP will work on Windows 98; I have WP 12 to try.
