Is it at all possible to run CLoD without Steam?

That's a curly one ...

You have a maximum of 3 installs per month which allows you to install CoD on different hardware configurations, so yes you can install CoD on two different PC's. BUT, the installs will only work under the one Steam account. So, no, you wont be able LAN the PC's

The only way I can see you doing this is by after activating both installs, make sure you save the Steam login details on the PCs and disconnect the PC from any outside net connection. But I suspect Steam is smart enough to know that the two PC's are using the same CDKey.

If you try this, you do run the risk of your account being banned.
