Automated deployment of Microsoft Office for Windows? (Activation)

[Snowleopard]

Is it possible to install Microsoft Office with the Windows ISO and then just enter your license key when you first launch an office application like word, excel, powerpoint, etc to activate it?

While you can automate Office installs, you can't script single-license activations. Most licenses today are shared plans based on MS Account or Azure-based domains, and there's no way to do that in automation.

Legitimate enterprises will use KMS keys for volume support.

Microsoft typically provides separate installations for the Windows operating system and Microsoft Office applications. When you install Windows from an ISO file, you are installing the operating system itself, not Microsoft Office. You can also try to reinstall for Microsoft office for Mac (if you use it) and try again.
In the previous case, to install Microsoft Office, you would generally need a separate installation file or use the online installer provided by Microsoft. During the installation process, you would be prompted to enter your license key or sign in with a Microsoft account associated with a valid license.
