Hello,
I'm using Windows with several virtual machines (VMware);
is there a way to use these virtual machines with Fedora
as host OS?
Yes. There is a free-to-use version of VMware Workstation for
Fedora.
Check the VMware web page. You can also convert your VMware
VMs to run
under KVM/QEMU ('man qemu-img'). Another alternative is
VirtualBox.

Hello,
does this mean,
I can have VMware Workstation for Fedora without having to pay for it?
I guess the conversion of these VMware VMs won't work, as they are
Windows VMs ...
Greetings,
Walter

Walter, I currently use Fedora as my main OS but I do need a little
Windows from time to time. KVM/QEMU run Win10 almost better than
dedicated hardware did!
Virtualbox also runs on Linux and does a bang up job at hosting
Windows, is there something holding you to VMware or is it a
comfortability thing?
I have two VMs which use a device I plug onto a real USB port of the
host ...
(one is a scanner, and one is sometimes my cellphone - address book)
some VMs are older Windows (WinNT, Win2K) and most are WinXP(x64)
I'm not sure of a VM solution other than VMware which supports this ...
Greetings,
Walter
