Sure. You don't need samba to access windows shares. You just need
CIFS support built into your kernel.

I know that Mark Shuttleworth thinks Wayland is a good idea, but his
grasp on reality is tenuous. For the foreseeable future, if you want
web browsing on linux you run X. You might look into kdrive if you
want less X. It differs from Wayland primarily in that it exists in a
useful state.

I don't know what the hell a 'webapp vm' is but there is no such thing
as a sane web browser.
