You DO NOT have to have an always-on Internet connection to access Office 365 desktop apps, other than to keep it updated and for it to verify your subscription status every so often; the Office 365 online apps (Word Online, Excel Online, etc.) DO live out on the Internet, but if Office 365 is installed to your local machine, you don’t need the online apps.

Hmm. That is not clear in their help file (again, written by software engineers rather than software users). I sure ain’t gonna pay them five bucks to ask a question.
