Start with this.  Adjust the values as necessary.  Have the alert trigger when the number of results is not zero.

index=<<index where your perfmon data is stored>> source=disk 
| where storage_free_percent < <<your desired value>>

Yes, it is possible. 

1) Install a Universal Forwarder (UF) on the Windows server

2) Enable the [perfmon://LogicalDisk] input on the UF.  Restart the UF for the change to take effect.

3) Create an alert the triggers at the desired value of the % Free Space field.
