Keep license active by self-paced NP program?

[CMV2254]

This is probably a very dumb question, but please give me some grace as I'm a very sleep-deprived postpartum mom. 🤪

I just turned in my resignation after having our second child. I have worked full-time, part-time and PRN, but, for many reasons, it is more feasible for me to be home full-time than to be working right now. I also feel more and more strongly that we should/I want to homeschool our children (ideally we will have at least 2 more in the future). At least during the early years, if not through high school. 

However, I assume that at some point in time I will work in some capacity again. Also, my desire to be home with my children full-time outweighs my career ambitions currently, but it does make me feel a little sad to not be practicing as a nurse any more. 
When I was renewing my license just for the sake of keeping it up-to-date, I saw that completing "at least six (6) academic semester credit hours of nursing coursework at current level of licensure or higher" is one of the options for maintaining your license. 

Are there NP programs that are self-paced? Would it be possible to keep my license active by verrrrrryyyyyy slowly working through an NP Program? 
I haven't had a chance to do research on this thought yet as my husband has been away for his job and I've been solo-parenting a toddler and infant and just haven't had the time. But I was curious if this is something anyone has done or if it seems feasible to do?
