Some site licenses will allow this. Sometimes the clause is that the work
computer and the home computer cannot be in operation at the same time.

Other times the "site" license covers a geographic area, say within a 100Mi
radius from the home site.

I can't speak to what arrangements there are with Windows site licenses tho.
Thankfully I've never had to read one.

I guess technically the are not "site" licenses anymore, but that is what
the SW companies call them.
