No.  Remote access is via a remote command facility like rsh or ssh, or
a proprietary protocol (pserver).  Of those, only ssh is recommended for
use across the public internet.  I believe the current feature release
of CVS has some provisions for using an HTTP proxy server to traverse
firewalls, but I don't know the details.
