On a MAC, the application is fully contained, so yes, it could be run off
a shared fileserver. Although I don't understand your concern with having
it installed on both machines.
The main gotcha is that only one person can have the data file open at a
time. This means you will need to coordinate "who is running GnuCash" at
any particular moment.
