Nope. You can not emulate iOS applications on Linux. You need the XCode and Cocoa libraries, which only exist on OS X.
You can run iPhone Simulator on Windows by installing simulators as native applications on PC. For example, iPadian is a popular tool used by more than 1 million users (official statistics) to simulate Apple's operating system and give you a feel of the iPhone.
Being an iOS developer, you know that using Xcode (IDE), you will be able to develop iOS mobile apps. However, Xcode only runs on a Mac computer. Thus, you need different ways to develop iOS applications on Linux. For developing an iOS app on Linux, you need virtualization software.
You can install Mac OS X in VirtualBox and then get an Apple developer account and XCode. Then you can use the iPhone / iPad simulator included. There are lots of tutorials for installing Mac OS X in VirtualBox, but it still takes about 3-4 hours before you have everything setup.
You can also use Safari on a PC. They use the same rendering engine (webkit) and act pretty much the same (minus touch related issues).
