No.

No one should be running Win9x for anything connected to the internet. Ever, full stop.

The only reason to touch it is for a dedicated retro gaming setup or (completely airgapped) for some industrial tool with drivers/software provided by a company that has been defunct for 25+ years.

Are there even still sufficiently large populations of win9x-compatible viruses online to make it a security issue anymore?
