My wife is setting up a new doctor's office with 5 computers. Is it possible to use virtualization and run 1 server that emulates 5 computer terminals?

As the title says, we're setting up a new office. There are 5 rooms, and each one of them needs a computer. Each computer would run 1 medical application and occasionally use a web browser. In general, the computer workload is extremely small. Plus, on average 2 of the 5 computers are being used simultaneously (very rarely more than 3).

Is it possible to use 1 server to act on behalf of 5 individual physical computers? At such a small scale (5 machines) - is that even financially logical to set up?

Any help is much appreciated. If such a setup is feasible, I would love to know some of the basics of how it might work.
