I was just wondering if Ubuntu 22.04 LTS can run on WSL rather than install a VM or native installation.

A simple Google search pretty much answers your question. Within the top 5 results, I found this guide.

I can confirm that once you have enabled WSL on your machine you can install Ubuntu 22.04 from the Microsoft Store.

It is worth pointing out though that under the hood WSL is just a VM installed in Hyper-V with a good amount of integration into the Host OS, but understand that you are actually installing the Hyper-V role on your machine and essentially turning your host OS into a VM as well, with all the implications attached to that.
