yes.

you can run an imap server on the ssh host and have ssh forward the port 
to your local host, which you then connect via isync.

also possible.
one way would be running tcpconnect (or netcat) on the ssh host to 
connect the imap server locally.
another way is to run an imap server that directly serves on stdio, for 
example panda-imap (yes, it's old, and it's what i use).
