It is not covered in their docs
But the community suggested few methods (there is one like you proposed, and another, so maybe check the other one?)

Correct launch of phpstorm from wsl in the console
How do I correctly run phpstorm from wsl in the console?
If I execute the command /mnt/c/Program\ Files/Sublime\ Text\ 3/sublime_text.exe . that opens sublime text and I can work in it.
But if I run the command with phpstorm /mnt/c/Program\ Files/JetBrains/PhpStorm\ 2021.3.1/bin/phpstorm64.exe . then this command will open the project only when I run phpstorm on windows. If phpstorm is not running, the command will not open the project, unlike sublime text.
How to correctly launch a project in phpstorm through the console in wsl, regardless of whether the program is running or not?

@OussamaMater In Jetbrains docs we're not find it, because it is a question of wsl and windows.
So, I can try to do it from toolbox from discussion, but it also looks wrong. Okay, I'll use the following, but I still think there is a better way:
alias pstorm='/mnt/c/Program\ Files/JetBrains/PhpStorm\ 2021.3.1/bin/phpstorm64.exe'
alias subl='/mnt/c/Program\ Files/Sublime\ Text\ 3/sublime_text.exe'
alias note='/mnt/c/Program\ Files/Notepad++/notepad++.exe'

Hi,
i found a solution that is working for me.
Run the following command(s) in your linux terminal. Installation path of phpstorm has to be in $PATH, otherwise you may need to provide the full path to the exe.
Open phpstorm from wsl
powershell.exe Start phpstorm64.exe .
With Alias in .bashrc:
alias pstorm='powershell.exe Start phpstorm64.exe'
And open phpstorm with
pstorm .
Hope that works for you too.
