Can Wine and/or Playonlinux be used to fix ntfs errors the way Windows does?

Very often, when a ntfs external drive cannot be mounted in Linux because of some more or less obscure motive, simply plugging it onto Windows fixes it, even without running the tool to scan and fix errors.
I often get those errors because I have many such external drives full of stuff around that I often use (please don't ask me to avoid ntfs: I do when I can). This has become my main reason for having a Window system installed somewhere.
But I wonder: could Wine/Playlinux be used for the same purpose somehow?
Couldn't that repair tool be installed in Wine?
