    I have a game and I would like to know if it is possible that i will share it and then play against another person from a different workstation but on the same network. Is this possible ? If yes can someone pls point me how can i do this.

    P.s. I wrote "game" above to keep it general so that i can make this method for any game and not anyone in particular.

    Thanks

    Only if the game in question is designed to be played that way. And only if you are using a network protocol the game understands. And if you have firewalls on the PCs, only if the firewalls are set to allow the passage of packets to whatever port(s) the game wants to use.

    So - describe your network. And specify the game. Any parts of the answer that are specific to that game can be pointed out along with the changes you'd need to make for a different game.
