Wireless AP/Router will allow the connections between the computers.
One computer will host as game Server.
Other computers will connect to Server and play over the LAN.
Firewalls may need to be disabled or settings modified to allow LAN game connection.

As long as the AP will let all the computers to connect and all of the computers will run the game, there's no reason why they wont be able to play together over the network.
