Can I use my 2014 Xbox One MCC to play 2019 PC MCC?

I bought the Halo MCC when it came out on Xbox One in 2014. I mostly played solo or sometimes couch coop since none of my friends group had a Xbox with Halo MCC.

Now that Halo MCC is released for PC, my friends figured they give it a try and I'm all about it. I already confirmed through multiple searches that there is no cross-platform-play between Xbox and PC, but cross-play between Windows Store and Steam Store.

My question is: Can I use my Xbox MCC (license/key) acquired in 2014 to play 2019 PC MCC?

(My Xbox is stored a few hundred miles away so I unfortunately cannot check if there is any kind of key or license printed on the booklet or CD case.)
