Is there a way to change which terminal emulator neovim uses for its :terminal command? I am running neovim on Windows 10, and it used cmd by default; however, I would rather use cmder or another linux-style emulator if I can.

Neovim uses its own internal terminal emulator for :term. You can not change that (as far as I know). The thing you can change is the command interpreter/shell that runs in that terminal. See Wikipedia for the difference: Terminal vs Shell.
You can start any command (that you have installed) in the terminal if you just specify it as the argument: :terminal bash
I don't know how to do that by default but you can read the docs in order to find out if that's possible: :help :terminal.
Or you can define a custom command:
:command MyTerm terminal bash
If you instead want to start cmder in its own window from within Neovim just run :!cmder & (I suppose the & also works in windows?).
