how to set up a remote managed node for mom (startrek.website)

I run my production Jellyfin server and a few other services on a Optiplex sff computer with a thicc hard drive and a low profile GPU.

I want to build two more of these with thicc Hard drives so that my parents and my in-laws can have a local Jellyfin instance that I manage remotely and they just need a box plugged in somewhere at their homes.

Is it possible to make Proxmox build a VPN tunnel on boot so I can just have it in my cluster dash. Like using tailscale or openvpn.

Or am I going to have to go with my original plan and put that on the same box as the Jellyfin server and then just VNC in?

Any tips or ideas?

15 minutes drive to my MIL and 4 hours to my own Mom.

My dad used to do tech support and wants to learn some of this stuff while he's recovering from surgery and I'm at my MILs several times a month anyways. So it all works out. Also it's only fair as the FIL has helped me do so much with my car over the years I wanted to pay them back and he likes movies more than me.
