I’ve tried it before- was pretty confusing to me. I even tried the “dd” backup method but I musta done something wrong as it didn’t work when I tried restoring. I do have the free macrium reflect but I’m not sure how it works on dual boot system.

I shoukd probably try an old cheap laptop to experiment with stuff like this on.

If you have any questions about it, don't hesitate to ask.

I have (obviously) replaced my actual username with my FR name. Also, I replaced my actual hostname with the tag, so you'll have to edit it for those items.
