linux license server headless installation

Is it possible to install the license server for linux and configure it without a window manager? Our Centos7 file server/license server is CLI only.

Yes, you can install it on a headless Linux. You can configure it command line using vrlctl - Chaos Docs
For example - to enable online licensing - /usr/ChaosGroup/VRLService/OLS/vrlctl online login
