Some computer games allow their users to install them on multiple computers to play a LAN game with only a single license (legally). Is this supported by Civilization VI?

The short answer looks to be No, but people have found some work-arounds like going into offline mode on steam. The legality of that option is another matter.
The developers actively don't want a big LAN with one copy of the game. That's why they created hotseat mode where you can can alternate on one PC.
