Can you be a digital nomad in your own country? (alien.top)

Just curious if anyone else has done this. Being a digital nomad in your own country. Exploring other states/cities. Does this qualify? Or is the essence of being a digital nomad usually about moving somewhere cheap, where your money goes further, i.e. Southeast Asia or Latin America?

I live on a really big island near Antartica and there's heaps to explore, even if it isn't a new culture per se.

I first read about Digital Nomads about 10 years ago, it was about people with remote jobs moving around the US, sometimes involving a friend group or set of roommates. So 3 months in Denver, 3 months in Brooklyn, and so on. I imagine these people just kept a basecamp home address, maybe their parents address, flew under the radar about state variations in taxes and such.
