Yes, a main studio need not even BE a studio. As long as it has some form of control over the transmitter (logging into the remote) and has your community of license toll free number. In essence this is the place where your 2 employees sit. In short a place where there is a door for the FCC to knock on.

The Main Studio as defined by the rules need not be the primary point of
content orignination.  It need not even loop through it. As long as EAS
can get on the air, the content creation can be anywhere and direct feed
the TX.
