GUI on a Linux server

Didn't you answer your own question? You need a windows vm, so install windows in a vm and connect your TV to it.

You might need to do a gpu passthrough for the hdmi cable to reach the windows vm video out.

Also, fair warning, controlling Netflix in a browser is probably impossible with your TV remote, so you'd need a mouse and keyboard. An android/google-TV box like the nvidia shield is much more user friendly in that regard.

The problem is to access the GUI of that VM. From the graphic card of the server there is just the CLI

Yes, I know, that's why I'll use a USB extender, to connect keyboard and mouse.
