I don't think it is possible, at least not directly.
The protocol between clamd and its client (such as amavisd)
sends a request containing a file or directory NAME to the server,
and receives a response. Although clamd could in principle be
on another host, it needs to have access to a submitted file
under the same name as indicated in the request. This might
be possible by the use of a NFS mount, or doing some explicit
file transfer to the clamd host before issuing a CONTSCAN request,
although it seems more trouble than is worth.
Extending the clamd protocol might be an option, although
not very appealing, as it would involve yet another file transfer,
instead of just passing a path name to a file.
