For what it is worth, back-up diesel generators, at commercial buildings, start up and run for exercise every month or so. Obviously an emergency generator cannot be driven but the monthly start-up is sufficient to exercise the engine and bring it up to full power and temperature.
This can be sufficient for your engine but it does not exercise the transmission of rear differential. You can shift through the gear with your transmission, to circulate the transmission fluid but your rear differential can only be exercised with use.
Obviously the best thing to do is to drive it, but I think that as long as you start the engine on a regular basis, bring it up to operating temperature, and use a fuel stabilizer, you will minimize any problems that you will have with your coach sitting for an extended period of time.
I would be more concerned about insect and rodent damage that is caused by critters that tend to nest in vehicles that do not move very often.
