That will work fine, if you download the content directly from Apple’s servers to your playback device (e.g. iPad).

Content is authorized for the device it was originally downloaded to, and then doesn’t need an online connection later.

Rentals are valid for 48 hours from the moment playback starts.

Tap/click to download after completing the rent transaction.
Some devices may ask Watch now or Watch later at the end of the rent transaction. Don’t start playback before you mean to, as that might cut into the aforementioned rental time.
