No, it is not a metaphor, but a straightforward description. Offices is now more commonly used to refer to literal rooms where people work, but in this context, it has a more old-fashioned meaning: it is just a synonym for duties.

Yes, the phrase "love's austere and lonely offices" is a metaphor. It conveys the idea that love involves serious and solitary duties or responsibilities. The use of "austere" and "lonely" emphasizes the complexity and sometimes challenging nature of love.
