Check out the last post in this thread. It has to do with booting into text mode 'dsl 2', but you may find some of this information helpfull.

I have read that thread (and already changed my .bat for static bootparams), but I do not know how to change the .bat to enable bootprompt for bootparam-INPUT.

The boot prompt is dependent upon whatever bootloader is used, and I don't think Qemu does it.  If you have DOS scripting knowledge you might be able to add your own prompt to the start of the bat file, but I couldn't help with specifics.

On the start line in dsl-windows.bat, look for where it says "append" or something, and add your cheatcodes there, although it is already set up for all the emulated hardware that q-emu uses.
