You could create a kind of automated workaound that first downloads
the files from a location on the Internet (e. g. with wget or ftp)
and then uploads them again if / after they've been changed.
As far as I know, there's no way to, say,
% ln -s http;//some.kind.of.server.org/home/foo/furz.txt local.txt
To mount a distant file system, tools like NFS or fuse can be used.
