I've been roughly experimenting with a PC98 style for a bit (pic rel, though I would not consider my work to be pixel art for various reasons). The PC98 style of dithering was born from the limitations of that era, and as such current software doesn't really provide simple ways to achieve that aesthetic by default. In some cases, that kind of dithering was simply just a by-product of processing a traditional drawing into something compatible with the PC98 color limitations.
That said, custom dithering brushes with various patterns do exist for most of the more popular drawing programs. However in most cases, you have to manually chose what pattern you want. I use SAI and this brush pack (though it does require extra steps if you want to adhere to a strict 16 color palette) - https://flamingteddy.itch.io/dithering-brushes-for-painttoolsai
