I stand by my original advice. Do not even try. *Especially* if it's
full and you have no way to back up so much data.

Split the RAID. Configure it as 2 drives. Put Windows on one, Linux on
the other. This works, is easy, safe and flexible. Trying to dual-boot
off an array is likely not to work, is not safe and is difficult and
complicated rather than easy.
