First, the license(s) are stored in the user's home directory (~/.bk/lease) per hostname. If you move to a completely different machine, then, yes, there will need to be a lease for that machine.
What you are describing is no different from the NFS case. It doesn't matter that the media has physically moved; it's still visible to multiple, unique hosts. Each host(name) will need it's own lease.
