can a home VPN allow me to "simulate" LAN connections to my home devices without using the wifi or even being home at all?

Is that the express functionality of a VPN and the word was bent so much by commercial privacy VPN companies that I don't even recognize what it means anymore? /genuine

@konstruct VPN is literally whatever classifies as a Virtual Private Network.
A VPN could be a fake overlay network that allows you to connect to a gateway (router) hosted on some company's server so that all your internet traffic is routed there (what you're probably thinking of as the commercial variety)
Or it could just be a way to connect to your home devices that are on the same VPN, or all of your home if the VPN endpoint you connect to also routes to the LAN there
..or both at once.
