I know, it is possible to create named pipe in Bash under Linux, e.g.
xxxxxxxxxx
1
mkfifo my_pipe
I was looking for equivalent under Windows, and I am not able to find any command.
Is is possible?

The answer is: NO
From WIkipedia:
A named pipe can be accessed much like a file. Win32 SDK functions
CreateFile
,ReadFile
,WriteFile
andCloseHandle
open, read from, write to, and close a pipe, respectively. Unlike Unix, there is no command line interface, except for PowerShell.
