You can't. Windows versions don't create versioned executables. Got bitten with this myself.
Once you're worked around that in the first place (lesson: "this is how you start Python"), then figuring out whether you need "python -m pip" or "python3 -m pip" shouldn't be a big deal.
Still the fact that the way you call Python is different on different platforms is rather unfortunate.
