The standard Windows file select box will accept URLs of the form ftp://mydomain.com/folder/file.cpp, but I have not tried it, and I am not sure if the file can be saved as well as loaded remotely.
A better solution is probably to use CVS which Dev-C++ does integrate with. Then your files will be local for faster builds, but can be checked in as necessary.
I have never tried Dev's CVS integration however. I hope it is not as bad as its GDB integration. It is a shame perhaps that it does not support Subversion, SCC or even simple FTP as well.
I am not sure how the CVS integration works, but if it merely invokes CVS via the command line, then you could I suppose write a wrapper that looked like CVS but actually performed FTP commands (using Window's built-in FTP client). You could probably do that even with simple batch files.

Can Dev C++ access files for editing via remote FTP?
No such facility is built in.
