The VM itself does not need a public IP, but it will need be able to reach the internet.
This can be through a proxy or FW etc, as long as the required URLs are reachable.

Yes MDE right,
If I can reach internet but no public ip, Is all good right?
What are the issues with installing MDE and disconnecting the public ip?
As you said, I think Is all right. right?

Yes, does not matter if the VM has its own public IP or not.
As long as it has access to internet someway.
