Yes - for that you just generate a multicast stream and any workstation
on the LAN that runs vlc set to read that multicast address can view
it.

No, but you could have several machines with tuners feeding different
channels on different multicast addresses. Or one feed can play to
only one address instead of multicasting. Or you could capture
shows to files and replay them on demand.
