"If you install the latest Windows 10 preview (build 10130) on a machine and use a Microsoft Account that's registered for the Windows Insider program then you'll get the final version of Windows 10 free. Windows 10 will stay genuine, so you can clean install the preview right now and simply upgrade to the final bits for no charge."
 
Does anyone know if it is possible to get this free upgrade on their physical PCs even though the insider build is installed in a VM?

I'd assume you'd get it free because you linked your email to the insider program and are using the build, but I'm not entirely sure if that's true. Most people will be getting the upgrade for free anyways.

EDIT :

As long as you are running an Insider Preview build and connected with the MSA (Microsoft Account) you used to register, you will receive the Windows 10 final release build and remain activated - Microsoft's Gabe Aul
