I'm fairly sure it doesn't work by PBEM.
Hosting doesn't differ at all for Hot-seat (local game), PBEM or network games. The only difference is how the turn files are being exchanged/transmitted.

Ekhem, I am confused now. Can you play 2 nations on pbem in one game with 1 cdkey from same machine?
Yes.

And it is possible to prepare turns on another machine, too. The only thing of interest for the host is: Which system submitted the turn to the server? A check value for the key being used and for the system is stored in the turn files. If the host finds the same key value, but different system values in the turn files, then it will let those nations stale.
