Yes, as long as you have an FTP server running on the same system as
Savant (War-FTP seems to be the best choice if you're looking for a free
FTP server).  Just set it up so an administrator can upload files to
directories that are served by Savant (ie, set War-FTP up to allow uploads
to c:\savant\root - as soon as a new file is uploaded, Savant will serve
it.)
