It's possible but it would depends on the virus target platform. So if the attacker wants to attack Android then it would be an Android virus but it would require another Windows based virus as well to spread it to the connected phone. Therefore essentially we got 2 viruses here, one need to be triggered in the victim device (Android) and another one for the transfer medium (Windows).
