Hi @Rudhra Mani,
Just checking in to see if the below answer helped. If this answers your query, do click Accept Answer and Yes for was this answer helpful. And, if you have any further query do let us know.
Sure you can install on a VM, fully supported and there is not really a difference to a physical machine.
On Azure you can get "out-of-the-box" VM with a running SQL Server.
