I wouldn't use Ubuntu but Fedora (or Debian). You can either set up xrdp or screen sharing. Xrdp is a persistent service and may require configuration. Screen sharing in a gnome session can be enabled through the settings (by the user sitting at the screen: Sharing-->Remote Desktop). Debian may be too old for that. Do not use VNC because that can be unusably slow; use RDP. And of course you can always ssh into the computer running emacs and run it in a tmux session. [1] may also helpful, it allows you to share keyboard and trackball between computers. If you have their displays side by side it's as if the displays were connected to the same machine. However, perhaps you can as well run emacs on Debian and run your Windows instances as virtual machines on the same machine. You can also use Fedora for that, but at least in theory, Debian is supposedly more stable than Fedora. And switching from Ubuntu to Debian may require less learning than switching to Fedora.
