The Magic Trackpad can only be paired as Bluetooth device to one computer at the time, that's a hardware limitation and part of the general Bluetooth security. So if you exclusively only use wireless Bluetooth connections on both computers, there is no way around this.
However, if you use a wired USB connection on your Windows PC and a wireless Bluetooth connection on your Apple Mac, you don't have this issue. Note, you can not do this the other way around as macOS steals the Bluetooth connection the moment you use a wired USB connection.
The other option is to use wired USB connections on both computers. Hope this helps.
