Yes, you can access a shared database from multiple computers. In version 1.0a, only the first to open had write access, but with 1.1 multiple users can open the database for editing.

It's not a true client-server setup, so it's not designed to handle a lot of concurrency, and the tree contents are not automatically refreshed with changes from other users (Shift+F5 or Tree | Refresh All will reload the trees from the database). A single user accessing from different computers at different times should not have any problems, but multiple users performing long-running updates could encounter locking issues.

Accessing a UR database on a USB stick (carrying it around physically to multiple computers) is another viable option.
