I do not know of any way to use the WIndows Runtime API for BLE devices to communicate with the nRF52840 dongle.

But i know that NordicSemiconductor provides a library for the usecase of using the dongles functionality in a application via communication by serial port.
Maybe the NordicSemiconductor/pc-ble-driver on Github is the component you are looking for.
The nRF52840 dongle is one of the supported dev kits and the usage of the driver is documented in the repository.

You can look at the examples provided to act as a quick guide or starting point for your application.

I think the UWP part could be build around the functionaltiy - i assume, since i have no actual experience with UWP application development.

EDIT: Have a look at the suggestions in this question about using the nRF52840 dongle from a custom application.

I hope this quick tip is usefull for you.
