Using my subscription on both Win 10 and Mac systems

I have been looking for a portable solution for when (if) I start travelling again in 2022. The MacBook has been recommended to me over the Surface Pro and the Wacom Studio. I use Win 10 on my home PC (23 TB HDs and 32 GB RAM) and have always used PS on this system alone.

My question is: If I buy a MacBook (new 16 inch screen version coming by the end of 2021), can I use my subscription on that portable device while travelling and still have the Win version on my home PC when NOT travelling? I would never use them concurrently.

I will be out of the country visiting 4 continents for over 150 days in 9 months of 2022 (if this virus problem ever subsides enough). I will need to use LR and PS for developing tens of thousands of photos I will take during those trips. The MacBook Pro 2021 seems to be the best solution.

Thanks.
