You would install DosEmu into QEMU into Linux or Windows.
But don't do that, since it makes no sense:


Host OS: Host operating system on which to run x86 machine emulator
(pick ONE)
-----------------------------------------------------
Windows
DOS

x86 Machine emulators
(pick ONE compatible with Host OS choice)
---------------------
QEMU is (among other things) a x86 machine emulator that runs under *nix
or Windows 
DOSEmu is a x86 machine emulator that runs under *nix only
DosBox is a x86 machine emulator that runs under *nix or Windows
Bochs is an x86 machine emulator for *nix or Windows (slower than QEMU)
I believe MESS will also emulate an DOS machine, runs under *nix or
Windows

DOS
(Many alternative DOSes to pick from... pick ONE)
---------------------------------
MS-DOS is the DOS operating system
FreeDOS is a Free re-implementation of the DOS operating system


So, based on the OS you regularly run, decide on a machine emulator.
Then decide what version of DOS you want to install in that machine
emulator. You only need one selection from each category. Note that this
means you normally would not run DOSEmu under QEMU, since you would be
emulating the machine twice which is unnecessary and inefficient.
