You can do it with xfce:
sudo apt install xwayland

I agree with @heamaral. The primary function of WSL should be to run Linux applications on Windows, like WineHQ. To use a complete Desktop interface, there are alternative means as @heamaral said. Or even installing a Linux virtual machine.
@ghost it's very sad. but the gnome on windows and the same good integration with Windows applications was incredibly convenient.
