These RPG are played in real-time (no daily turn) and has lots of rich quest experience, vast lands to explore and locations to visit and impressive story line and turn-based tactical fight. Such RPG's have no base city development scheme to build up stronger army or boost economy strategically. Only your Hero and his friends are developed as time goes by. So it is RPG.
KB:L is NOT strategy game like HOMM which is suitable for MP. It is tactical RPG like FF or Fallout which is NOT suitable for MP. The only similarities with HOMM and KB:L are just its style and turn-based hexa arena fighting aspect, which is also norm of many Japanese RPG like FF.
Can you imagine multi-player version of Final Fantasy series? I'll say it impossible!

Well well, what to say... just look few years behind - wasn't HOMM 1 inspired with King's Bounty (original ), Might and Magic itself is very similar to Final Fantasy - long single player with no signs of multiplayer.
But enough of history, purely technial - I am sure that KB TL is perfectly suitable for MP add-on. Would it look the same (gameplay) as KB TL SP? Maybe, but it is absolutely possible.
