No. LiveCode for Windows is for Windows running on Intel Processors. Windows 10 on Raspberry Pi runs on ARM V7 processors. Also, it seems that Windows 10 on Raspberry Pi is not going to be a "Desktop" Windows but more an "Embedded" Windows that you would use to make things such as robots, weather monitoring, etc.

LiveCode could be ported to Windows 10 on ARM V7 processors but it looks unlikely that Windows 10 on Raspberry Pi will not be able to run it.
