You _can_ use guided partitioning as a guide. Use Windows to reduce the
amount of space it takes on the disk. Use Windows tools to format the
second half of the disk, or whatever to vfat. Boot Debian: use Debian to
delete the vfat partition and create blank space: then use "use largest
blank space" and guided partition. Debian will recognise there's another OS
there and will insert the appropriate booting magic into a GPT formatted
disk with UEFI. I have (at least) one laptop here with exactly that
configuration.

If you're not sure, can I recommend Raphael Hertzog's Debian handbook -
which has just been released for Debian 10. See planet.debian.org recently.
Download and read it in slower time.
