Fortunately, you can do so by turning to specialized software, in this case, Aml View, which is a plugin that lets you accomplish your task without considerable efforts.

Easy to install

Integrating this plugin with your file manager can be done in two different ways. The easier way is to navigate from Total Commander to the location of the archive and double-click it. The application automatically detects that a plugin is included in the compressed file and prompts you to install it.
The more complicated way requires you to unpack the contents of the archive, launch Total Commander, open its Configuration window, navigate to Plugins, click the Configure button next to the Lister Plugins (.WLX) category and add the WLX file from the unpacked archive.
