Yes! Simply read the stack file as binary and save the result into a blob column. I do this with PDF forms. No need to store your PDF forms on disk! And you can always be certain you are using the most recent version of the forms (or stacks)
So your splash stack can actually check the version in the table where you store the most recent version, (if you have a version number column) compare it with your existing version, and then replace the substacks in your app with the most current ones. This is all theoretical, you understand, but no reason why it would not work. You may have to encode the binary data first for transport over internet routers.
