No. Boot Camp is not supported on the Macs with M1/M2 processors.

See the note in this article.

Install Windows 10 on your Mac with Boot Camp Assistant - Apple Support

"Boot Camp requires a Mac with an Intel processor."

How come?

Ask Microsoft why they have not released a production version of their Windows ARM to the public. It is only available as a pre-release version for Microsoft insider-program members.

There is no production version of Windows that runs on the M1/M2 Macs in Parallels.
