The code for both the client and server are open source (https://github.com/hypothesis/h) so this is possible. The server is designed to support the needs of large scale deployments, so this does come with some complexity compared to a system you would design for smaller scale usage.

The text on https://web.hypothes.is/ mostly targets schools and universities, because Hypothesis pays for itself by selling integrations with online learning platforms (Canvas, D2L, Blackboard etc.) and associated support.
