Office 365 - Access another tenant from office applications

Hi everyone,

I have a (strange maybe) question about Office 365.

Here is the situation:
On the company computers are installed, by the IT department, Office 365 apps (Word, Excel, etc...). employee are signed in with their company account in those apps to save the documents I create / edit in the company repositories (Onedrive/SharePoint).

I would need to know, if one employee has an account in another independant tenant with only Office online apps, he could use the Office apps installed locally on his computer, signing in with his other tenant account to create/update documents and save them in the other tenant repository?

Would it be possible technically ?
Does it break any license or rights?
Can it be prevented?

I would like to thank you in advance for your help.

Regards,

Hervé
