I am not aware of any window-preview-on-mouse-hover feature, but you can activate previews of open windows on
Primary mouse button click by running
gsettings set org.gnome.shell.extensions.dash-to-dock click-action 'previews'shift+click by running
gsettings set org.gnome.shell.extensions.dash-to-dock shift-click-action 'previews'Middle mouse button click by running
gsettings set org.gnome.shell.extensions.dash-to-dock middle-click-action 'previews'shift+middle mouse button click by running
gsettings set org.gnome.shell.extensions.dash-to-dock shift-middle-click-action 'previews'
(To find out all possible options for an action, run
gsettings range org.gnome.shell.extensions.dash-to-dock click-action
and so.)
As a side note, a GNOME extension called Dash to Panel puts the application icons to the top bar (and provides an option to move top bar to bottom) and also provides the window-preview-on-mouse-hover feature.

@James If I'm not mistaken the preview-on-hover feature you're looking for is not yet implemented. But I would recommend not accepting the answer so that in future if/when the feature is implemented others will be more motivated to post a new answer.
