Can this game be played via family share?

Can i buy this game and also have my SO play it via family share? Or is that a no go because of the 3rd party Ubi Connect launcher?

No.
3rd party ubisoft launcher games do not have family shared enabled, because they're linked to the specific ubisoft account after you launch the game.

If for example someone in your family would be able to play it before you, you would be not be able to play the game anymore, so this is to avoid for those sort of issues games being linked to wrong accounts through family sharing, albeit you can still do it if you use the wrong ubisoft account to login the first time.

Also you can see if a steam game has family sharing or not, by checking the official "tags" on the store page, above the controller support "tags". (actual tags are user generated)

Yep that was the reason to not buy it and will wait for a good discount.

Hey guys,

Thank you for kindly sharing the answer maxeyum needed, indeed Star Wars Outlaws does not support family sharing as it links to only 1 Ubisoft account.

If ever we can help with anything else in the future, just let us know
