Yes, there is Genymotion(this is free if you create an account). This runs an Android instance inside virtualbox, but you need virtualbox installed for this to work, which can be installed using sudo apt install virtualbox. Then download the Genymotion deb and install it using dpkg -i <path to file>.deb.

You could also try Android-x86 and install in a virtual session of VMWare/VirtualBox. However most android apps won't run in it. You can find the isos here - www.android-x86.org

Also, you could try AVD in android studio. For this follow Google Developer instructions - https://developer.android.com/studio/releases/emulator.html
