Windows 10: Windows update with limited internet connection

I have windows 1909. I'd like to update to 20H2, but my internet plan only provides 2GB of data per day. I read somewhere that this update'll be approx. 3GB size. So I can't download this update in a single stretch. Is it ok if the update gets disrupted half way ? Or do I need to download and install the update in a single stretch ??

Is it possible to share internet connection via remote desktop?

RDP is not capable of Internet sharing, so you can't share Internet using RDP with standard applications. There are many way to share Internet from a Windows box to another one. I suggest you to use VPN. You should do following steps:

1. Run VPN Server on your server with unlimited internet access
   
2. Connect to VPN server from your limited computer
