    The extension will only be available for VMs that have a graphics card. You cannot add a graphics card to VMs that do not have one. To find a series of GPU VM you can use this page. Once you have a GPU type VM you should be able to install the extension following the NVIDIA GPU Driver Extension for Linux or Windows.

    Hope this helps. Let me know if you still have questions or need further assistance.
