running mutiple instances of standard executable from a network se

If I have an executable on a network server and a network client accesses the
application and executes it, can another network client also access the
application and execute the application?

Since I have never built anything that would run from a network server, I
have no idea how this works.

Assume that the app is a front end for a database and that the database or
ADO handle the record locking.

Is this where DCOM fits into system design?

TIA,
