Keyboard passthrough from guest to host
Hello, is there a way to do passthrough keyboard commands from a Windows XP guest to Windows7 or newer host?

No. There is very little communication in the guest->host direction catered for by any VM software.
But, if you have a tool that is designed to work across two networked PCs then it will work just as well across a virtual network.

If both OS's are Windows, then try Microsoft Sysinternals' PsExec.
