    From what I know of windows systems: Windows® does not have a swap, but it has a similar system (the infamous pagefile.sys). Also, there are APIs to map a file to memory (see:Managing Memory-Mapped Files). So, I would say YES, things are similar on windows system. But don't take my word for it.
