No. Regular mapped drives in Windows use drive letters to point to SMB/CIFS
shares, and typically you wouldn't open SMB traffic to public networks.

There are third-party FTP clients that will let you map drive letters to FTP
servers. I don't think there's anything like that built into Windows,
though.

WebDAV connections will show up within the list of network places once
you've defined them, just like FTP sites.
