It is not set up to access GitHub by default, but you can clone an existing repo from a source location. I cloned my fork to my local using GitHub Desktop, and set current branch to my fork branch. There is folder context menu (windows shell integration) to access these. See all open pull requests for your repositories and check them out as if they were a local branch, even if they're from upstream branches or forks. Git for Windows includes 'Git BASH' (uses MINGW64) and 'Git GUI' (git-gui).
