I think your question is about netbios names over openvpn instead of
the other way around.

Netbios names can be learned via broadcasts only when everything is on
a single subnet. In a routed network (vpn or not) you need a common
WINS server configured to collate and forward the names. If your
openvpn server is Linux, you would have to run samba/nmbd with wins
service enbabled to use it as a wins server.
Or, if you set up a DNS server with the names, current windows
versions should use that in preference to netbios anyway.
