Here is an article on potted Christmas trees. Keeping the roots alive and not frozen solid will be difficult in colder regions. The longer it stays inside, the greater the chance it will break dormancy so move it outside ASAP. Water gently throughout winter to keep roots from drying out. Mulch the soil heavily and surround the container with bales of straw, bubble wrap or an insulation blanket. Keep the plant out of the wind if you can. https://www.gardeningknowhow.com/ornamental/trees/christmas-trees/plant-your-christmas-tree.htm
