Yes, you can use Cloudflare's CDN with a website hosted on a Windows 7 machine. However, the Windows 7 machine would act as the origin server. You would need to configure your domain's DNS records to point to Cloudflare's servers and then configure Cloudflare to forward requests to your Windows 7 server's IP address. Keep in mind security considerations of exposing a potentially vulnerable system directly to the internet.
