VTx is the Intel Virtualization Extensions for running virtualized workloads. Microsoft use Hyper-V as their hypervisor, on top of which you create virtual machines. HAXM / Android Emulator is a hypervisor itself and so what your trying to achieve is known as nested virtualization.

In order to use nested virtualization you need to select a VM size which supports it, such as D3_v3.

Please refer to this article for detailed instructions and considerations:

NOTE: You don't need to install Hyper-V. The article is written for using nested Hyper-V.
