I have never tried to run it that way so I am not sure if it will 
work... I guess that as long as the required utilities can be executed 
and the directories accessed for the CGI execution it should work but 
your ISP may not allow it to call external utilities or write to the 
backup directory..

Sorry I can't be more helpful..
