I don't think so.
MSSQL is looking for some flavor of 'local' file, even over a network
(mapped drive or, I believe, UNC path) but not over the internet.
Is the server inaccessible so that putting the file there isn't an
option? If so, DTS will let you copy/sync dbs over virtually any
connection, but it ain't as tidy as restoring from backup.
