Of course. Install the tinc server on your Linux gateway in the office
and configure your home-side tinc daemon as client connecting to the
office gateway. Dont't forget to:

- assign the tap devices the right hw address
- set netmask (AND broadcast address) on tap devices wide enough to
  match all pakets in the virtuall subnets
- open firewall rules to allow the connection between subnets.

Good luck,
Eduard.
