3. The problem I’m having:

We are moving from IIS to caddy, the certificate was already imported to the Windows certificate manager and used in the IIS.

5. What I already tried:

There’s no built-in way to do so right now.

What you could do, if you have the development resources, is to write a new certificate manager plugin which fetches the cert from Windows.

Caddy has HTTP (and Tailscale) certificate manager modules built-in (as of v2.5.0), so you could set up a little HTTP server that fetches them for you, if you rather do it that way instead of writing a Caddy plugin.
