I want to install my retail Windows 8.1 on a virtual machine w/in Linux. I have to use a Windows machine to get the ISO to install a Windows machine?

Legally OP needs to buy a legal copy of Windows to install on his VM and we all do things legally here don't we? Ronintexas is right.
 
stillblue - for free Windows XP virt. You need 7 Pro, for free Windows 7 You need Windows 8/8.1 Pro. For Windows 8/8.1 it's gonna be most likely Windows 10 Pro/Business version, in order to get free VM, so yes, Your suggestion is right, he needs license for the virt. machine "officialy".
