I suspect my system hard drive to get old.

Before losing anything, I want to create a full clone (all partitions, all data, exact clone) to another drive. So I can then simply replace the old hardware with the new one.

I think I may boot on a USB media to clone my HDD while it's not in use, so can I use a Linux tool? Is "dd" capable of that operation for a Windows drive (including boot information)?

Yes, you can create a copy of your whole Windows hard drive using linux dd comand. but you need to be cautious in the process.

Although, I would suggest using a partition and disk imaging/cloning program similar such Clonezilla
