Hi Bruno,

Yes, you can.

Licensing is managed in Acrobat DC by signing in with your Adobe ID. You will install Acrobat DC on the new computer, sign in, and you'll be working.

It it would be a good idea to sign out of the old one first, but not mandatory, as you can manage that from your Adobe account.

Did you purchase a perpetual license or a subscription? The answer above only applies to the latter. If you bought a perpetual license then you'll need to deactivate Acrobat on the old machine before installing it on the new one. You can do that via the Help menu.
