Probably, but the activation of it would be stringent.

The issue with any Windows OS going forward, no matter what version, is that Microsoft detests local desktop computing now, and so much of it is being ejected to the cloud. That includes all the various methods of managing it for enterprise customers. They're slowly working towards the Apple model where the OS basically can't live in isolation. If it touches the internet, it will phone home and kill itself if told to.
