No.

If you want to run a dual boot with Windows on a 250 GB partition and
Fedora on the rest using two 250 GB disks, then what is the point of
having them in a RAID 0 (which is not R of RAID...) in the first
place?  I suggest you just turn off the RAID stuff in the BIOS and use
them as separate disks.  Should save you some trouble.
