Can I run Android Studio (Android SDK emulator) in a Microsoft hyper-v virtual machine?
Refer to this link: How to run Android Studio on Windows without disabling Hyper-V
The solution (if you do not want to disable Hyper-V) is to use Microsoft’s Android emulator, which is a free download here.
In order to use this with Android Studio, you need to run the emulator first. Then, in Android Studio, go to Run > Edit Configurations... and select Show Device Chooser Dialog under Deployment Target Options.
Run your project, and select the VS Emulator, ignoring the invitation to “Turn off Hyper-V”.
Hyper-V added support for nested virtualization in the Windows 10 Anniversary Update (released August 2016) and Windows Server 2016. However, the only Microsoft-supported usage of nested virtualization is running Hyper-V within the VM, not HAXM. From the official documentation, "Virtualization applications other than Hyper-V are not supported in Hyper-V virtual machines, and are likely to fail."
That said, the change log for the latest release of HAXM reports that Intel "Fixed an issue with Hyper-V nested virtualization support, which had prevented Android Emulator from booting." So while it isn't supported by Microsoft, it seems running HAXM nested in a Hyper-V VM may be possible.
If that's the case, to get HAXM working in a Hyper-V VM, you will need to enable nesting for that VM. Run this command on the VM while it is in the OFF state:
Set-VMProcessor -VMName <VMName> -ExposeVirtualizationExtensions $true
After that, you should be able to install the latest version of HAXM within the VM, allowing use of the Android Emulator. Again, I haven't personally verified this, and it isn't supported by Microsoft, so your mileage may vary.
Full disclosure: I work at Microsoft on the Hyper-V team.
[Edit 7/2/2018]: Android Emulator support for Hyper-V acceleration was announced earlier this year, and is currently in preview. See the announcement post for details.
Microsoft posted a link to allow Hyper-V as hardware accelerator for android emulator run in windows.

Here is the instructions.
Enter About in the Windows search box.
Select About your PC in the search results.
Scroll down in the About dialog to the Windows specifications section.
Verify that the Version is at least 1803.
Enter windows features in the Windows search box and make sure both Hyper-V and Windows Hypervisor Platform are checked.
Open SDK manager in Android Studio, make sure your Android Emulator version is at least 27.2.7.
Restart your computer, and relaunch your Android Emulator in AVD Manager in Android Studio.
