I don't think this is feasible. COM ports are directly forwarded to serial
ports in Wine.

The more realistic is possibly a "proxy application" on the Linux side that
talks with the device reliably and emulates what this obscure application
running in Wine needs via pseudo terminal to which the COM port is mapped.

But that's all how I can help here as this as I don't have the real device.
