I think if we stress tested my connection, it might be the best thing, since if it works as it, there will be zero extra cost.

I could take my worlds offline and run a vanilla survival world if we could get 5 or 6 people on at once to test it.

You can host a maximum of:

9
Players at the same time, plus yourself

The problem is that the internet connection speed is too slow to send and recieve data the data for more than 9 people at the same time.

You're probably better off renting a server instead to have a decent experience.
So for 5 or 6 people it should be fine. Who knows if fine is a lag free experience, or only a barely playable one though.

The hardware can easily handle 30+ players, so that's not an issue at all.
