If we’ll be able somehow decode this track, we would be able to encode it to another lossless multichannel codec like FLAC or WMA and add it to a new container, and play on computer without HDMI.

Yes, the two things are not the same.
EVOdemux can differentiate the MLP and the Dolby TrueHD streams.
The stream on the HD DVD flagged usually as "Dolby TrueHD" (stream_id: $b0..$b7) can contain a standard MLP stream or a real TrueHD stream.
Standard MLP (on a DVD Audio):
Code:
MLP audio stream 1 found!
First PTS = 00000294
Substream id = A1
Standard MLP stream (up to 6 channels)
Quantization length = 24 bits
Sampling frequency = 96 kHz
Channel arrangement = Lf + Rf + Ls + Rs + C + LFE
Dynamic range control = -10,6371 dB .. 8,4282 dB
TrueHD (on a HD DVD):
Code:
Dolby TrueHD audio stream 1 found!
First PTS = 00000D8E
Substream id = B1
TrueHD stream (up to 8 channels)
Sampling frequency = 48 kHz
2 ch. decoder
channel modifier = 1
6 ch. decoder
channel modifier = 1
channel arrangement = Lf + Rf + Ls + Rs + C + LFE
8 ch. decoder
channel modifier = 1
channel arrangement = Lf + Rf + Ls + Rs + C + LFE
Dynamic range control = -10,6371 dB .. 8,4282 dB
