Access home network using VPN while router is connected to PIA

Hello all,
First time post here. I'm considering jumping into OPNsense, installing it on an unused computer or old server at my home. I have a "is this even possible" question I was hoping someone could help me out with. I tried googling and searching the forums, but couldn't get the wording right to land on a good search result that answers my specific question.
I would like to connect the OPNsense router to Private Internet Access such that any device (permanent or transitory, like visitors' cell phones) on my home network is encrypted when browsing the great interwebs. As an aside, I would like have certain traffic like Disney+ and Netflix NOT routed through PIA, which I understand is possible.
So far all of that seems straightforward and possible to accomplish. Here's where my question comes in: I would also like to connect to my home network from my computer at work using a VPN so I can back up work files to my home NAS SAMBA share. Is this even possible? Have one VPN connection from my work computer to the OPNsense box, yet have that same OPNsense box route home network devices through PIA?
Thanks all!
