I haven't tested it for this, but my experience with Adobe DRM "borrowing" is that the time limit is in the file and the reader software enforces it, so there is no need to check back with the home server.

I don't turn my wi-fi off often enough to test this, but the occasional long-forgotten overdrawn book (on Internet Archive, not Libby), seems to work this way.
