Is there a way to set up the website on a linux vps and have the database on a windows vps?

Yes, but not too sure on why you'd want too?

Yes, download MySQL on the Windows VPS and whitelist the Linux VPS IP address so it can have access to it:

 GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON *.* TO MYSQL_USER@LINUX_IP IDENTIFIED BY "MYSQL_PASSWORD";

Imo I'd run MySQL on Linux, then the web server on Windows.

Linux servers are still open to DDoS attacks.

MySQL from experience runs faster on a Linux server, that's why I recommended it.

That's like saying Peerblock can actually stop a DDoS...
