I'll have to look into that. My understanding was that only one account in the family could play the same copy at a time.
For LAN/Offline play I believe there's no limitation. You can also have "multiple" copies (get the game for 5 bucks on a steam sale compared to console), for multiple user online play.
Remote play is for games that support local multiplayer to have another user "route in".
