I gave it a quick try but indeed this is a bit annoying to setup as I would have to change quite a few folder permissions to access the dropbox FG folder from the other account and I'd prefer not to do that. I believe it would work but can't be sure without trying, sorry.

That's not how local ("offline") files in DropBox works. This is purely a setting to save disk spcace locally by offering an option to have a small file "stub" locally (classed as "online" storage only) or have the full file locally ("offline"). It doesn't impact how DropBox processes files that change frequently - the live FG campaign files change freqently, and so there's a chance of the files getting corrupted (and this has been reported many times on these forums over the years). As has been mentioned, the strong recommendation is not to have any file backup/sync/cloud storage active on the live FG data files - as you risk corrupting those files and losing campaign data.
