The idea is to place a virtual machine on the server (the virtual disk itself) and connect to it from computers in the LAN. Work with Microsoft Access is required. Is it possible?

what is under work in VirtualBox? press the "start virtual machine" button? by regular means, you can only press it on the machine on which you have VirtualBox running. you can also connect to the host via RDP and run VirtualBox on it. You can also use remote command invocation via powershell.

, that is, place the virtual disk for the virtual machine on the server, and the virtual machine itself - somewhere else, right? and where exactly in this case are you going to keep it, if not on the server? and why?

i.e. to the disk? no, you don't need to connect to the disk from computers in the LAN. select one computer, install VirtualBox on it, and connect a virtual disk in VirtualBox to the virtual machine over the network.

Working with Microsoft Access has a rather weak relationship with VirtualBox. Microsoft Access works on computers, Microsoft Access works in a virtual machine, as long as the system requirements are met.

Yes. In a virtual machine, network - connection type: network bridge.
